Solution Does Not Build #27

Closed ghost closed 4 years ago

ghost commented 4 years ago

Hi

I'm trying to compile Marksman from the repo however, I've encountered a few issues. I have managed to successfully get the SnipeSharp solution built and it appears to be loading into the Marksman solution properly however, there appears to be issues within the Marksman solution preventing a successful build.

Issues

Below are the issues I have encountered while trying to build this solution.

MarksmanSetup (unavailable)

The marksman solution contains a VS installer (.vdproj) project however, this does not appear to be available either within this repository or another?

SearchFilter Errors

SearchFilter objects are created within Broker.cs however, the SearchFilter class does not contain a constructor that takes a single argument.

Full Error List

In addition to the two errors listed above, the errors in the below screenshot are also present when attempting to build the solution.

Environment

OS: Windows 10 IDE: Visual Studio 2015 (Community Edition)

I think you're having the same issue that was present here: https://github.com/Scope-IT/marksman/issues/11

First, compile SnipeSharp (our fork, not the original), as it is a dependency. Then, in the Marksman project you will need to add a reference to our version of SnipeSharp. After this, Marksman should compile correctly.

Let me know if that fixes your issue. I'm leaving this open for now, because I will need to create a section in the README that better explains this process.

Ah, the SnipeSharp build will be the issue then! I used the official repo and not the forked copy..

I'll compile the fork and then try compile Marksman again, I'll update after testing.

Confirmed - Build is successful after compiling forked SnipeSharp repo.

Could you provide any information about the MarksmanSetup project? Is that available from somewhere or is that propriety?

danielhogg commented 4 years ago

The MarksmanSetup project is for generating the .msi files (Windows Installer Package) that we ship with every major release. It is not necessary for the operation of Marksman.
