Compliling on windows and missing libmagic.so #29

Closed muteb closed 1 year ago

muteb commented 2 years ago

Hi guys, I am trying to compile magic on windows 10 and I face this issue. I install libmagic through vcpkg and set the environment to see the directory but no luck 

Caused by:
  process didn't exit successfully: `C:\Users\user\Documents\rust\filem\target\debug\build\magic-sys-2c574dcd88b09256\build-script-build` (exit code: 101)

Could you give a bit more detail on why you're using the standalone vcpkg CLI instead of cargo-vcpkg?

How did you create your vcpkg root, i.e. which git revision are you using and which packages did you install? I assume you are not setting the right environment variables. Given your output, you could try the following:

cargo clean
set VCPKG_ROOT=C:\vcpkg
cargo build
