How do I compile the code on windows, is it possible with visual studio?

MitchellSternke commented 5 years ago

Hi @UselessMachine, I have not tried building this with Visual Studio, although CMake should be able to create a Visual Studio solution from the CMakeFiles.txt script in the repo.

Otherwise, you can try creating your own Visual Studio project and adding the .cpp/.hpp files found in the /source directory of the repo. You technically don't need Flex/Bison as dependencies unless you want to generate SMB.cpp yourself (there's already a copy of this provided). As long as you have the other dependencies listed in the README it should compile with VS.

Let me know if you run into issues.
