How to Build on Windows #11

Open dwvisser opened 11 months ago

dwvisser commented 11 months ago

I am trying to build libfec on Windows using “Build Tools for Visual Studio” and running Visual Studio Code with the C/C++ Extension Pack and CMake Tools. It just doesn't build for me. Here is the start of the long list of compiler warnings and errors I get when trying to compile the fec target:

Another clue: libraries like getopt.h are not found by the check_include_file test. If anyone out there knows the secret sauce to get this to work, please let me know.
