Dear Jim,
Question number one is for Gustav, he has experience on that. I haven't. I
guess we will have to rely on him and his experience/know how.
Question number 2. At the moment I'm interested in having the system working
and I am happy with Visual Studio. When I have finished I will deliver
source files "clean" (i.e. with the Unix encoding) and proper Visual Studio
Project files. Anyone with some experience on the tool should be able to
recompile them.
Of course I intend to pass to the community all the sources as well as the
VS project files.
For the binaries I plan to make a distribution like Windows-OpenACS,
containing not only Naviserver (or AOLserver, we will see) but also all the
other binaries and tools required to have a fully working and complete
OpenACS platform. The advantage of the binary distribution is that all its
components are already pre-integrated and have been tested and they do work
together.
Like for Windows-OpenACS, there will be two versions: one free but limited
and one without limits but with a fee. If someone doesn't like the binary
distribution, he/she can take the sources (which will always be included)
and compile them. I'm currently evaluating which type of limitations could
be put in place and what would be a reasonable fee, able to cover my
integration, testing and support work.

Sounds great. And to be clear, Naviserver supports OpenACS directly? I saw
some talk about missing features, ns_share, etc. Frankly, while I knew ACS
when it was first created way back in 1995 I was never quite sure what it
needed :)
On Visual project files, what I remember is that 1) the environment is very
cool when it's all working and 2) it kept adding those obnoxious \r\n to the
files (the silly "dos" text format) and 3) was very hard to re-locate. You
think that stuff is cleaner in 2012?

Hello Jim,
I had in mind to use the half-baked make files form AolServer, but there
were various differences in the two codebases.
Naviserver tar ball comes with old Visual Studio 6 project files: they are
closer to Naviserver codebase (of course).
So I started from them, updated them for Visual Studio 2012, modified them
to target Windows 64 and modified the code as required whenever errors
appeared. So yes I am building Naviserver directly from Visual Studio 2012.
Once I finish, I will pass to the community not only the modified sources
but also the modified project files. All this stuff, if working and properly
supporting OpenACS applications, will made available as next release of
Windows-OpenACS (

Excellent! Are you building directly with Visual Studio or using some of
the half-baked make files from AolServer?

Dear all,
As you can see here:
<image001.jpg>
I managed to compile the core part of Naviserver with Microsoft Visual
Studio 2012 using as target Windows 64. You can see in the picture the
modules I compiled. nspostgres and nsoracle are still to come, when I have
time. In this exercise I also included:
Tcl 8.5.12
Tk 8.5.12
Tcllib 1.14
tDOM 0.8.3
thread 2.6.7
xotcl 1.6.7
My target is to be able to support on this "platform" all OpenACS based
applications I work on at the moment.
When I have finished with nspostgres and nsoracle I will let you have the
code changes. I would like you to review them before including them into the
code repository.
This is all for the time being,
Maurizio
