[Kicad-developers] Help neede with MSVC build

[develop]

Hi team,

 

this is my first post here, so greetings to all.

 

Finally I managed to setup MSVC and vcpkg and it compiled all right. But now
I'm stuck. When starting KiCad (no matter as a program or within MSVC)  from
.\build\install\x64-Debug\bin, it is missing the wxwidgets dlls.

Starting KiCad from  ...\build\x64-Debug\kicad, it is missing the *.kiface
modules (which live in the install directory). Copying them form install to
x64-debug does not help, the Load method called by Kiways returns false,
though the path is perfectly ok.

What am I doing wrong?

Help highly appreciated, thanks in advance.

The current source (~7am UTC) crashes in pcbnew at opengl_gal.cpp(598) due

[Kicad-developers] MSVC build, incomplete version info

[Kicad-developers] MSVC compile: missing s3d_plugin_oce.dll

[develop]

Compiling the current source (7043) with MSVC and the proposed
CMakeSettings.json I get a missing s3d_plugin_oce.dll error when starting
the 3D viewer.

What is wrong here?

Re: [Kicad-developers] MSVC compile: missing s3d_plugin_oce.dll

[develop]

I got it sorted out, partially. After copying the right jpeg62.dll and 
lzmad.dll to the install directory for debug, KiCad started all right.

When starting eeschema or pcbnew or anything loaded by kiway.cpp, I get an 
error about failing *.kiface to load.

Debugging showed that in wxDynamicLibrary::Load, RawLoad is called with the 
correct path (in my case 


but that returns NULL, as it fails to load the library. Unfortunately, RawLoad 
does not provide any error codes.

Is this the bug you mentioned? But then, the path passed to RawLoad is correct, 
so I do not see what can be wrong here. Other modules like ntdll, comctrl32 
e.a. are loaded ok.

Only thing I can image is that – out of the blue - there’s a problem with the 
path string. Is it a MSVC specific thing (the nightlies obviously are built all 
right)? Ok, the nightlies are built with wxwidgets 3.0.5

and I'm on wxwidgets 3.1.4. But one week or so ago, everything was ok. Trouble 
started after upgrading vcpkg.

Probably a few weeks waitI have it on my queue to revisit vcpkg at some

It's just easier to copy the DLLs like I noted.

Ah it's a bug in vcpkg I need to fix upstream.

 

For now you'll need to include in your kicad install folder for debug, the 
non-debug versions of freetype, zlib, bz2 and libpng

Re: [Kicad-developers] MSVC compile: missing s3d_plugin_oce.dll

[develop]

I copied over ALL of the dlls, just in case, and it did not help. If it is 
about dependencies, maybe I missed to install something in vcpkg. I installed 
the recommended libraries as per the web documentation:

boost cairo curl glew gettext glm icu ngspice opencascade opengl openssl 
python3 wxwidgets zlib.

Anything missing?

If the kiface file exists in that path, the failure to load is because you are 
missing more dependencies in the install\bin folder that need to be copied from 
vcpkg debug\bin or bin.

The latest vcpkg master should have opencascade's linkage to debug freetype 
libraries fixed now.

You will have to git pull --rebase your vcpkg folder. Run .\vcpkg upgrade 
--no-dry-run and then once rebuilt, copy the DLLs all over again to the kicad 
install bin

I've fallen under the mistake before of debugging without installing and then 
wondering why I am getting error messages of dlls missing.
