Building Jive for Windows on VC++ Express

[Triode]

Quick note to say that Jive can be built using the free microsoft build tools for windows. I've put togther a brief wiki on this:

http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.cg...iveOnVCExpress

Note it does take a reasonable time to download the SDKs.

Does a pre-compiled version exist? From what I have read during th last week it will only work against SS 7.0?

Not yet, but it is planned.

Correct. It's using a new interface which does not exist in 6.5.2.

I followed the instructions on the wiki and was successful in building the debug version. In order to build the release version, I had to do the following changes to luaprofiler.vcproj:

I had to do the following changes to luaprofiler.vcproj:

Could you post the patch as an attachment, I am having some trouble applying it when copying it from the post.

I put together a simple bat file that does the required file copying on Windows. It should be run from the jive\src\pkg directory.

Maybe theres a step missing from:

Where do you acquire Jive.sln?
