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

Hey Jon, I was playing around with vcpkg a couple of weeks ago and it's works surprisingly well. There is finally a sane way to build dependencies and compile and link against them on windows. The dependencies I could not find in vcpkg are ngspice and wxPhoenix/wxWidgets which means that we

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 From 87674cb5a87b4d77683248b65994ef625f8a7c47 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

What is the current consensus on using OPT types in the code? I know there are some instances where we are already using them from the Boost library (since our C++ version isn't high enough to include them), but is that considered a good type to use more of? I am curious, because I am thinking of
