issue with buildboost

Loji_me95

when i use VS 2017
and while i tried to debug it in VS it shows this message
"ScintillaEditView::init : SCINTILLA ERROR can not load the dynamic library "

so what i have to do ?

Search the source for the message, identify the condition(s) in which it is shown and try to prevent that/those condition(s).

Not found: C:\Users\analo\source\boost_1_55_0-x64\boost\regex.hpp
Boost Path not valid. Run BuildBoost.bat with the absolute path to the directory
where you unpacked your boost zip.

Boost is available free from www.boost.org

Unzip the file downloaded from www.boost.org, and give the absolute path
as the first parameter to buildboost.bat

e.g.
buildboost.bat d:\libs\boost_1_55_0

To build 64 bit version, add “-x64” flag after the full file path.
e.g.
buildboost.bat d:\libs\boost_1_55_0 -x64

You can specify which version of the Visual Studio compiler to use
with --toolset.
Use:
–toolset msvc-8.0 for Visual studio 2005
–toolset msvc-9.0 for Visual Studio 2008
–toolset msvc-10.0 for Visual Studio 2010
–toolset msvc-11.0 for Visual Studio 2012
–toolset msvc-12.0 for Visual Studio 2013

e.g. To build with boost in d:\libs\boost_1_55_0 with Visual Studio 2008

    buildboost.bat --toolset msvc-9.0 d:\libs\boost_1_55_0

Spot the mistake. Hint: whitespace.

Try specifying the MSVC version on the command line.

I did with a whitespace but it still the same problem

Did you actually read the text you posted?

–toolset msvc-12.0 for Visual Studio 2013

Visual Studio 2013 is the highest version supported by the buildboost.bat you are using.

@MAPJe71

but some of my friends has vs 2017 and used buildboost.bat
so what the step that i can use to build boost in vs 2017 ?

Search the forum and GitHub repository for the subject (e.g. forum topic 13959 and repo issue 1228) or ask your friend for his what and/or how?

See https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/pull/2062 and https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/pull/2336.

Do you see a messagebox with:

Authenticode check failed: signature or signing certificate are not recognized?

Otherwise the most probably issue is that the SciLexer.dll is not placed beside the notepad++.exe.

Do you really want to build and debug scilexer.dll?
