MSVC compilation
-
Doesn’t compile cleanly like it used to.
Several versions haven’t compiled properly. -
Surely, as a developer, you must realize that very little can be done with a bug report like this?
What version of VC++?
What is the error message?I think VS2013 is now required.
-
The solution files in /PowerEditor/visual.net appear to be not VS2013.
are they still valid?If you’re saying VS2013 is required, why do these older things exist?
the 2015 solution errors:
Error: The element <IncludePath> beneath element <Project> is unrecognized. C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Local\Microsoft\MSBuild\v4.0\Microsoft.Cpp.Win32.user.props
that’s not saying
oh you got some include path wrong, thats saying,i don't even understand this file's format -
These are the project files:
- notepadPlus.vcxproj - VS2013 project, used to build release binaries AFAIK, works well for me.
- notepadPlus.vs2015.vcxproj - VS2015 project, kept up to date AFAIK, presumably available as a courtesy for users who don’t have 2013.
- notepadPlus.vs2005.vcproj - probably outdated and should be deleted.
That error you’re getting doesn’t make any sense, because none of the project files has the text <IncludePath> in them. The error message points to the .props file - have you taken a look at it…?
Some things to check, off the top of my head:
- Have you cloned the right repo?
- Have you synced?
- Have you made local modifications to the project files?
- Is there anything wrong with your VS install?
-
- Have you cloned the right repo?
i download the latest source file tar ball/zip.
- Have you synced?
i presume you mean github… not using it.
- Have you made local modifications to the project files?
no.
i unpack the zip and go directly to the /PowerEditor/visual.net/ directory.- Is there anything wrong with your VS install?
I doubt it, but couldn’t rule it out.
Last year-ish, i used the vs2005 project files provided and “upgraded” them to a VS2008 IDE, those typically worked out-of-the-box for 20 npp versions. -
installed MSVC2015. now it compiles.
