Problem getting V8 sources

[Ivan P.]

I am attempting to get V8 sources to build on Windows, using VS2013. OS is Win2008 Server R2 x64.

I have downloaded and updated depot_tools.

Then I have started new cmd shell and did following:

L:\>path L:\depot_tools;%PATH%

L:\>mkdir v8-build

L:\>cd v8-build

L:\v8-build>fetch v8

Running: 'L:\depot_tools\python276_bin\python.exe' 'L:\depot_tools\gclient.py' root

Running: 'L:\depot_tools\python276_bin\python.exe' 'L:\depot_tools\gclient.py' config --spec 'solutions = [

  {

    "name": "v8",

    "url": "https://chromium.googlesource.com/v8/v8.git",

    "custom_deps": {},

    "deps_file": "DEPS",

    "safesync_url": "",

  },

]

'

Running: 'L:\depot_tools\python276_bin\python.exe' 'L:\depot_tools\gclient.py' sync --with_branch_heads

What this error means and how to get rid of it?

If you manually run L:\\depot_tools\\python276_bin\\python.exe v8/gypfiles/landmines.py what error message do you get?

Actually, differs a bit but still similar to previous one.

[Jochen Eisinger]

Please set the env variable DEPOT_TOOLS_WIN_TOOLCHAIN to 0 and try again

Got following output, seems like update succeeded, please confirm.

Will I be able to build it with VS2013 now?

L:\v8-build>set DEPOT_TOOLS_WIN_TOOLCHAIN=0

GYP is now disabled by default in runhooks.

If you really want to run this, either run

`python gypfiles/gyp_v8` explicitly by hand

or set the environment variable GYP_CHROMIUM_NO_ACTION=0.

Please set the env variable DEPOT_TOOLS_WIN_TOOLCHAIN to 0 and try again

Maybe? I'm using vs2015, no idea whether 2013 C++11 support is enough

And which previous stable version can be surely built with VS2013? 

I don't need very latest version, but I need something stable and buildable with VS2013.

And how to configure build to use exactly VS2013?

I have both VS2015 and VS2013 installed on the machine, but I need to use VS2013.

However, after I have used 

python tools/dev/v8gen.py x64.release

it seems to generate build parameters that use VS2015. 

So what do I need to do to point it to the VS2013?

[Ivan Pizhenko]

Switched to VS2013 by using

L:\v8-build\v8>set GYP_MSVS_VERSION=2013

[Ivan Pizhenko]

Still following question: the build has produced me bunch of executables like d8.exe, but I need to embed V8 into my application and therefore I need either DLL or LIB, which are not generated - I have searched x64.release directory for LIB files and all it found are following:

options_sources.lib

gmock.lib

gmock_main.lib

gtest.lib

icui18n.lib

icuuc.lib

but there are no v8_base.lib, v8_snapshot.lib and so on.

How to force build to generare V8 libs?   

[Pavel Medvedev]

Hi Ivan,

I may suggest to try pre-built Nuget packages for V8:

https://www.nuget.org/packages/v8-v120-x86/
https://www.nuget.org/packages/v8-v120-x64/
https://www.nuget.org/packages/v8-v140-x86/
https://www.nuget.org/packages/v8-v140-x64/

I have created them recently in order to manage V8 build issues on Windows.

I use GYP in a Python script to build V8 libraries and Nuget packages, as you can see at https://github.com/pmed/v8-nuget

[Ivan Pizhenko]

Thank you Pavel. This may be useful for me.

To get dll files, you'll need to set component=shared_library in your GYP_DEFINES env variable, or set is_component_build = true in your gn args, depending on which build system you use.
