Microsoft.Windows.CppWinRT.props not found

[UNIcodeX]

I'm getting error: ~\Documents\flutter_apps\alert_proj\build\windows\packages\Microsoft.Windows.CppWinRT\build\native\Microsoft.Windows.CppWinRT.props" was not found

After some research, I found that this is apparently something required by nuget, but that you can't just nuget install {...}, and have to use the special developer powershell for VS2019 Community. Trying the command there says that I need to open a project.

Trying to open to the {project_root}\build\windows folder in VS2019 Community, and trying to run the Install-Package command again, gets me the following Install-Package : Project 'Default' is not found..

Please advise.

Could try the example project with Flutter 2.0+? Does it work?

BTW, you'd better install nuget.exe in you PATH

https://github.com/woodemi/quick_notify/blob/2a408366047c0648ca315a78ff660538803b2940/windows/CMakeLists.txt#L9-L20

[UNIcodeX]

The example project will not build either. Nuget is installed on the path via scoop. I also removed that one and tried the choco version.

C:\Users\unicodex>where nuget
C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\bin\nuget.exe

C:\Users\unicodex>nuget
NuGet Version: 5.10.0.7240
...

Flutter doctor

When attempting to manually run the install commands outlined in the CMAKE, I get the following.

C:\Users\unicodex\Documents\flutter\quicknot>nuget install "Microsoft.Windows.CppWinRT" -Version 2.0.210505.3 -ExcludeVersion -OutputDirectory .\build\windows\packages
Feeds used:

Argument cannot be null or empty
Parameter name: primarySources

C:\Users\unicodex\Documents\flutter\quicknot>nuget install "Microsoft.Toolkit.Uwp.Notifications" -Version 7.0.2 -ExcludeVersion -OutputDirectory ./build/windows/packages
Feeds used:

Argument cannot be null or empty

Looks like some nuget parameter named primarySources is missing??

[Sunbreak]

primarySources is a parameter of nuget.exe internal function: https://github.com/NuGet/NuGet.Client/blob/57f92ad62a14bc1958be2c0acfef79fc589774e3/src/NuGet.Core/NuGet.PackageManagement/NuGetPackageManager.cs#L1631-L1659

        public async Task<IEnumerable<NuGetProjectAction>> PreviewInstallPackageAsync(NuGetProject nuGetProject, PackageIdentity packageIdentity,
            ResolutionContext resolutionContext, INuGetProjectContext nuGetProjectContext,
            IEnumerable<SourceRepository> primarySources, IEnumerable<SourceRepository> secondarySources,
            CancellationToken token)
        {
            // ...
            if (primarySources == null)
            {
                throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(primarySources));
            }

Mine trial:

C:\Users\sunbr\woodemi\quick_notify\example>nuget install "Microsoft.Windows.CppWinRT" -Version 2.0.210505.3 -ExcludeVersion -OutputDirectory ./build/windows/packages
Feeds used:
  C:\Users\sunbr\.nuget\packages\
  https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json

Package "Microsoft.Windows.CppWinRT.2.0.210505.3" is already installed.

So I guess Feeds used are missing in your environment

You'd better check your config file %UserProfile%\AppData\Roaming\NuGet\NuGet.Config

• https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7462578/remove-nuget-official-feed-permanently

Mine is

C:\Users\sunbr>type %UserProfile%\AppData\Roaming\NuGet\NuGet.Config
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
  <packageSources>
    <add key="nuget.org" value="https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json" protocolVersion="3" />
  </packageSources>

OK. Thank you for the reply. I'll check this out when I get back in the office on Monday and report back.

I was able to install those two packages manually after fixing the NuGet.Config file to be like yours. I'm assuming that if I were to have had that already in place, then flutter pub get would have ran the nuget install without issue.

The next thing I ran into is an error MSB8036: The Windows SDK version 10.0.17134.0 (or later) was not found.

As you can see in this image, a later version is installed. I am and have been able to build other packages / plugins without issue.

[Sunbreak]

You could download Windows 10 SDK(10.0.17134.0) in the right pannel, at the end of the list

[UNIcodeX]

so the "or later" part doesn't matter?

Mine is 10.0.19041.0 and it works fine. I've no idea why yours does NOT work. But installing other version does no harm, does it?

[UNIcodeX]

True that it does no harm. Just low on disk space on this machine. I'll figure it out.

I finally got back around to testing this part of the app for Windows. The following worked for me to get the app to build using quick_notify on Windows 10.

scoop install nuget
notepad C:\Users\UNIcodeX\AppData\Roaming\NuGet\NuGet.Config
flutter run -d windows

Is there a way to automate this setup if either: A) nuget is not found, or B) a blank / default nuget config file is found.

[Sunbreak]

A) nuget is not found, or

This may help: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/nuget/consume-packages/install-use-packages-powershell#use-the-nugetexe-cli-in-the-console

I offen use Package Manager Console when nuget.exe is missing for pure UWP project

B) a blank / default nuget config file is found.

Sorry, I have no idea

[pacoDevelop]

I installed Nuget with scoop and when I start with windows the following happens.

Windows 10 for development and testing environment.

Flutter version: flutter_windows_2.5.2-stable

NuGet Version: 5.11.0.10

It works here

You work on 2.6.0-11.0.pre, not 2.5.2-stable
