Freeopcua on Windows 10 and vs2013

[Lizard00]

Hello to all, I have a big problem to get freeopcua working on a Windows 10 with Visual Studio 2013. I hope you will find my fault and could help me.

My installation steps:

1. Download and install Boost (boost_1_56_0-msvc-12.0-32.exe)
2. Download and make freepocua with CMake 3.9.0-rc1 Cmake Configure output:

3. Open freeopcua.sln in Visual Studio 2013 and build the solution. But I get some linking and compiler errors and I don’t know how to resolve them. Where did I made a fault?

I'm getting a similar linking error with building in Win 7 and VS 2013...

[cenit]

using vcpkg it should be possible to install freeopcua on windows and also mac/linux starting from sources, together with the most up-to-date boost libs. Please let me know if it works for you or any problem you may have, together we can fix it if there's any problem.

Hi, I have installed freeopcua through vcpkg and did "vcpkg integrate install" but the problem is not solved. Can you help me with this?

[cenit]

which problem? this issue was related to the process of building freeopcua itself, if you installed it through vcpkg it should have been built properly.

which problem? this issue was related to the process of building freeopcua itself, if you installed it through vcpkg it should have been built properly. This time I git cloned a new freeopcua and directly open the folder with VS. However when I try to run the example_server.exe, there is still some errors in building. As in the pic:

[cenit]

it might be possible that the current master branch is broken on windows. I can guarantee the result only if you use vcpkg with tested release (just do ./vcpkg install freeopcua:x64-windows)

[cenit]

if you really need the latest version from head of master here, and you need to build it on windows, it might require a patch. Sorry I don't have time at the moment to work on it, so I cannot guarantee anything. One idea might be to request an update on the vcpkg issue tracker. Then maybe someone might take the burden of testing it and producing the patches.

Anyways Thanks for your reply. I will check what I can do more about this issue
