Simply does not compile under VS 2013

[Hawkeye]

I have downloaded the source code and followed the directions exactly, yet the Windows build fails to compile successfully under VS 2013.
The include paths generated in the solution/projects do not align with the directory structure on disk.

Do you have a distribution where this actually works?

Windows 7
VS 2013

Thanks-

Hawkeye-

I get thousands of lines of errors like this. Even though the .h files exist, they are not found by the compiler.


(note I tried 6.8.9-10 first, but it failed with the same errors).

I know nothing about Visual Studio. IM compiles fine with Cygwin under Windows 8.1.

[magick]

We tested Visual Studio 2013 today and ImageMagick 6.9.0 compiled and linked without complaint.

Sorry to revive an old thread... I am also having trouble compiling using VS2013. I am testing version 6.9.0-0. I am trying to compile using command line tools in order to automate building ImageMagick as a part of a much larger build process.

The commands I am using are:
From the VisualMagick/configure directory I run: configure.exe /noWizard /mtd /8
This command doesn't exit cleanly (even if I build the configure.sln)... I trap and ignore the bad exit code.

I then cd .. and run: UpgradeToVS2012.cmd
Which results in: Migration completed successfully, but some warnings were detected during migration. I can post the UpgradeLog.htm file if that is helpful.

Then I run: MSBuild VisualDynamicMT.sln /property:Configuration=Release

This fails with the following output:

Project "C:\third_party\emsng_build\sandbox\ImageMagick-win32-6.9.0-0\VisualMagick\All\All.vcxproj" (2) is building "C:\third_party\emsng_build\sandbox\ImageMagick-win32-6.9.0-0\VisualMagick\filters\analyze_mt_dll.vcxproj" (150) on node 1 (default targets).

However, when I open VisualDynamicMT.sln in the IDE, it does indeed compile as expected. *shrug*

Any assistance is appreciated.

Have you tried executing the following before you run msbuild?

Code: Select all

call "%vs120comntools%vsvars32.bat"

I also specify the platform when I build Magick.NET but I don't think you need to do that. The fact that configure.exe crashes is also odd. It works perfectly on my machine.

p.s. You should use /Q8 instead of just /8.

[dez]

Sorry, that was a typo, the script does indeed do /Q8.

And yes, I do call vsvars32.bat...

configure.exe doesn't crash, it just exits with non zero exit status. Which gets caught as Inappropriate IO control or something like that.

UpgradeToVS2012.cmd upgrades the project to Visual Studio 2012. We don't have a script that upgrades the project to Visual Studio 2013. Maybe you need to open the project first in VS2013? I am planning on refactoring configure.exe to make it create the project files for different Visual Studio version. We won't need the scripts then anymore the Visual Studio version will probably become a command line argument.

[dez]

the .sln opens in vs2013 just fine and doesn't prompt to upgrade after running the vs2012 script. The only part that doesn't compile is the analyze_mt bit. The rest compiles fine. And all of it compiles fine in vs2013 if I open the .sln and use the configuration manager to build a release build. Just odd that it doesn't work from command line.
