Tutorial how to setup development environment

[al-sabr]

Hi Mathieu & Thomas,

I've downloaded Visual Studio Community 2017 and tried to run the code from MonaServer and MonaServer2.

There is one problem... The IDE ask to convert the projects for VS 2017

MonaTiny/main.cpp

I say OK and then when I try to debug the code I get these errors...

Can someone write or make a video how to setup basic settings in VS Community 2017???

Best Regards

Hi,

You have to install Visual Studio Express 2015 for Windows Desktop : https://www.visualstudio.com/vs/visual-studio-express/
(The link is at the end of the page).

With MonaTiny you can just run build and it should work, with MonaServer 1 you will have to copy the External/ directory from MonaServer2 into MonaServer directory.

I hope it will help you

There is a problem with External from MonaServer2 when I copy it it still misses Lua dependencies. I think you should add them into External folder. To be honest compiling lua all the time is a waste of time it should be delivered like the openssl deps.

Linked with #70 #61

Does it works with VS2015? Maybe there is a problem with libraries order in VS2017.
As I say in #70 we will no longer update MonaServer. Our aim is to add support to LUA into MonaServer2 when we have time, then we will add the lua dependencies into the repository.
