Thanks so much!

 

I am busy working with Alexander on renumbering so it may take me a few days to see if I can get it to work.

Hi Brian,

 

I will try to write a better guide, especially if I can get a full (all options) KiCad build going rather than a minimal one.

 

In the meantime, I'm attaching my CMakeSettings.json from VS2019 in case it's helpful.

It has a hard-coded toolchain path that you'll have to check/update.

 

I installed all the dependencies that were available in vcpkg, and then disabled whatever was left (ngspice, OCE, and python stuff)

Then I set up that CMakeSettings and basically things work :)

 

By the way, I pushed my patches from my earlier email, let me know if anyone has an issue with the change to the CMake script.

 

Best,

Jon

Despite MSVC Community being from MS, I see some advantages in using it, namely that it is basically a one-package solution: no msys2, no loads of other tools that have to be updated, etc..

 

My lack of cmake-foo meant I hit a roadblock when trying to build an MSVC recipe. One time I got so far as to have it crap out on SSL or something like that but now I’m stuck much earlier.

 

In any event I’m more than happy to experiment with whatever you’ve got, especially if you can provide some guidance.

Hi all,

 

I got a build working using Visual Studio 2019 and vcpkg.

Attached are three patches I needed to make so far.

I'd appreciate some double-checking on these since cmake and wxwidgets can be a bit perilous.

 

Thanks,

-Jon
