Building on Windows

Building on Windows

To build on windows follow these steps exactly. The build process depends on specific libraries being installed on your system in specific locations.

Note
You do not need to build a copy from source – we have done this for you. Unless you consider yourself an advanced user you should obtain a pre-made visual studio template containing the latest D++ build (for 32 and 64 bit, release and debug profiles) by clicking here and completely skip this guide!
  1. Make sure you have Visual Studio 2019. The Community, Professional or Enterprise versions all work, however you will probably want to install Community. You do NOT want to use Visual Studio Code for this. You can download the correct version here.
  2. Check out the DPP project source using git
  3. From within Visual Studio 2019, click the "File" menu, choose "Open" then "CMake", and select the CMakeLists.txt within the project folder
  4. Go to the "Build" menu and choose "Build all" or just press F7
  5. Check that compilation succeeded. You may now use the library in your projects!

Troubleshooting

  • If you do not have an option to open the CMakeLists.txt, ensure that you have installed the C++ development portions of visual studio (not just web development portions) with at least the default options.
  • If the project does not build, please ask for help on the official discord server.

After compiling

After compilation you can directly reference the compiled project in your own CMakeLists.txt as a library or use the lib/dll/headers as you wish. Note that openssl and zlib will also be an indirect dependency of your program (as DLL files) and should be copied alongside dpp.dll.
