Does Diagon support Windows?

[hungpham3112]

I read README.md but didn't find anything about installation in windows.

I don't think there are strong blockers for windows build. However, I didn't manage myself: https://github.com/ArthurSonzogni/Diagon/blob/master/.github/workflows/continuous-integration.yaml#L48

The only difficulty is installing Boost and running ANTLR.

Can you show me the way to install Diagon in Window?. I'm new with this

[ArthurSonzogni]

I would try to open the CMakeList.txt using cmake (or maybe visual studio) This should work, but you might see errors.

Also, I believe you might see errors with regards to boost. I think I have to find something to install it.

Windows binaries have been released: https://github.com/ArthurSonzogni/Diagon/releases/tag/v1.0.139

Hi, I'm here to report an issue about running the Windows executable.

When I run the file "diagon-1.0.139-win64\bin>diagon.exe" I extract from the "diagon-1.0.139-win64.zip", I got an error message that said:

---------------------------
diagon.exe - 系统错误
---------------------------
无法启动此程序，因为计算机中丢失 MSVCP140D.dll。尝试重新安装该程序以解决此问题。 
---------------------------
确定   
---------------------------

To translate to English word, it said the MSVCP140D.dll file is missing. The problem here is the file with D means it is the debug version of the library. I think for a release, you should supply the exe file which depends on a release version of the dll.

See reference here: MSVCP140d.dll - Microsoft Q&A

Thanks.

Hello @asmwarrior, Thanks for reporting this. Do you know how to do it? The release version are compiled in release mode: https://github.com/ArthurSonzogni/Diagon/blob/413132bc56948514d425d0d865b4fb83408e74b2/.github/workflows/continuous-integration.yaml#L227

Not sure if there are something more I can do.

Okay, I found it: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/prop_tgt/MSVC_RUNTIME_LIBRARY.html
