Building in Visual Studio with custom externals #94

Closed Issac-Thomas closed 10 months ago

Issac-Thomas commented 1 year ago

Hello, I am trying to build an ofxPd application on Windows using Visual Studio, and the project contains custom Pd externals. I have implemented the source code, and the Setup functions, however, the project fails to build with error codes relating to the externals source code. The same project builds in XCode, but I also require a Windows .exe solution. I can prebuild the pd externals as ,dll's using Code::Blocks, but as far as I'm aware the Visual Studio project will always fail to build the OfxPd project with my custom externals due to the lack of GCC compiler options?

Is there a way of linking to the .dll's instead of the source code, or aware of any alternative solution to build the project on Windows?

Many thanks in advance!:)

What are the externals? Can you copy/paste the error output? maybe up to first 50 lines to do
