Re: Try to build libvmime-0.9.1 and the build on vc9 / win/xp has a few problems

[Vincent Richard]

Hello!

I highly recommend you to get the latest development version (on the Git), a lot of compilation issues have been fixed and this version is far more stable than the last release (0.9.1): https://github.com/kisli

Hello!

You should read the VMime book, chapter "Compiling and installing":
http://www.vmime.org/public/documentation/book/vmime-book.pdf

To summarize: you should run CMake first to create the "config.hpp" file for your system (Windows).
For example, you can simply run :

cmake -G "Unix Makefiles"

in the root directory of VMime. The script "test-outsourced-build.sh" is only provided as an example of how to run an out-of-source tree build.

hello vmime team.

I read the part of windows install, and did not find anything improve.

1.downloaded with "Download zip" button from:
https://github.com/kisli/vmime the vmime.zip and into: E:\vmime-master

2.cmake (version 3.0.2) + into the path.
3.make (version 3.8.2) + into the path.
4.boost (1.56.0) + build with bjam.
5.icu + into the path.

try:
cmake -g E:\vmime-master (it runs and creates sub directories) cxx11..
OR
cmake -g "Visual Studio 9 2008"

make had no file to execute.

the file config.hpp is missing.

what do i have to type in windows/xp to make it build?
(maybe inside codelite + gcc)?

Hi!

I tried just a few minutes ago and the "config.hpp" is written in "./src/vmime/config.hpp", at least on my platform.
Could you please post the *full* output of "cmake -g"?

Thanks,

Vincent
