Create nightly builds page #10

Closed wolf-sigma closed 8 years ago

Need the ability to post nightly (really builds of current commit from master) builds for:

wolf-sigma commented 8 years ago

Currently have Buildbot running on my network for all but Windows. Will work on publishing binaries and logs to a web server for public consumption.

wolf-sigma commented 8 years ago

Windows is finally working now! See README.md for download URL.

I get the 3 error boxes saying that DLL files are missing when I try to run this and the other previous versions of emulationstation. The original ES didn't do that. I've tried installing it and the vcruntime thing, but they are still "missing" when I try to run it.

wolf-sigma commented 8 years ago

Are you running emulationstation.exe or the install? You will need to overwrite the installed .exe in program files if you don't use the install (i.e. these builds don't replace the need for the dependent DLLs).

blm07 commented 8 years ago

I tried both, I tried replacing just the exe and installing it again, and both ways it says the same thing.

wolf-sigma commented 8 years ago

Ok, thanks. What DLLs does it say are missing?

blm07 commented 8 years ago

vcruntime140d.dll msvcp140d.dll ucrtbased.dll

wolf-sigma commented 8 years ago

Ah. We're shipping the VC13 redistributable, but since we're compiling with MVC2015 now, we need to do the 14 ones. I'll fix the installer to do 14 instead of 13.

You can get around this with this: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145

Updated the installer with the new distributable. Would love if you tested that to see if it fixes yours.

blm07 commented 8 years ago

It has the same error, am I supposed to restart or is there something simple that I could be missing? Restarting hasn't helped before.

wolf-sigma commented 8 years ago

No, that's not it. I just stood up a fresh Windows instance, and am able to reproduce it. There's something on the Visual Studio 2015 that you need. Just need to figure it out :)

wolf-sigma commented 8 years ago

Ok. GOT IT. The new installer should work just fine now.

For the record, the problem was two-fold. The first issue is you do need both the 2013 and 2015 distributables (probably because some of the DLLs are built with VC2013) and you need to build the code with a "Release" target.

Sweet, it works, and I'm looking forward to seeing this great front end evolving.
