VS 15 build error

[Pamnki]

I'm trying to compile this miner using VS 15 and I'm getting this error. Is there anything I'm missing?

Are you building on Windows 7 ? I was able to build on Windows 7 by using the Windows 8.1 SDK

If not, make sure your linker paths are setup correct. That is, you need to link against the included rapidjson and crypto directories:

C:\dimecoin\projects\xmr-stak-cpu\crypto;C:\dimecoin\projects\xmr-stak-cpu\rapidjson;%(AdditionalLibraryDirectories)

Im using Windows 10. I tried to put

D:\Users\PwnK\Downloads\xmr-stak-cpu\crypto;D:\Users\PwnK\Downloads\xmr-stak-cpu\rapidjson;%(AdditionalLibraryDirectories)

to Additional Library Directories but it didn't fix the problem.

[dimecoin]

Did you add files as existing items or as reference?

[Pamnki]

I added the files using File, New, Project From Existing Code and chose Visual C++ and then I just chose the folder location.

[dimecoin]

ah, I see, I just did new project. you also need to link again 'ws2_32.lib'

[Pamnki]

That fixed the problem. Thank you!

dimecoin - rapidjson is all header files, nothing to link against

crypto is c, but msvc will link it as long as it is added to the project.

[dimecoin]

Yea, I was wrong here. Those don't need to be in lib path. Just need to link against 'ws2_32.lib' and it should work.

thank you @dimecoin :)
