Compiling with Visual Studio 2019 #2

Open PablitoE opened 3 years ago

Hi. I was trying to build the project using Visual Studio 2019 (msvc-16.10) and boost 1.76.0 but I ran into some issues, and now I'm stuck. I was hoping to get some help from you. I followed your installation notes, adapting things to my msvc and boost versions. I was able to compile boost by changing "toolset=msvc-14.0" to "toolset=msvc" in the b2 command (line 3 in Compiling.1 ). Then, I used "bjam --toolset=msvc variant=release link=static", but I get:

######################################################################################## msvc.link.dll bin\msvc-16.10\release\link-static\python-3.7\threading-multi\PyHSCam.pyd LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'libboost_python37-vc142-mt-x64-1_76.lib'

Why do you think it is still trying to use libboost_python37-vc142-mt-x64-1_76.lib when actually I have libboost_python37-vc1610-mt-x64-1_76.lib ? Thanks, Pablo

You are mistaken here:

build the project using Visual Studio 2019 (msvc-16.10)

This is not obvious, but all visual studio releases from 2019 onward (16.X VS release) use MSVC++ 14.2. At a glance, it seems like the proper way to get this number is to create a simple program that prints out _MSC_VER.
