Thanks for the feedback, I was getting quite frazzled after two days slowly assembling a build machine. I went back and did a full __ALL_TESTS__ build and got lots of errors, however sorting them gives me multiple instance of just the following: LNK1181: cannot open input file 'serf-1.lib' LNK1181: cannot open input file 'D:\svn\src\Release\subversion\libsvn_ra\libsvn_ra-1.lib` LNK1181: cannot open input file 'D:\svn\src\Release\subversion\libsvn_client\libsvn_client-1.lib' LNK1181: cannot open input file 'D:\svn\src\Release\subversion\bindings\swig\python\libsvn_swig_py\libsvn_swig_py-1.lib' ...plus... C1083: Cannot open include file: 'stdbool.h': No such file or directory c:\strawberry\perl\lib\core\handy.h 77 C1083: Cannot open include file: 'ruby.h': No such file or directory D:\svn\src\subversion\bindings\swig\ruby\svn_wc.c 821 ....which I assume come from the perl or ruby bindings (I need neither). So it looks like I need to start with serf ~ did this used to be part of the subversion build? [1] does not mention any build steps for serf so I assumed it was built by svn. Checking the solution it looks not to be the case, though, so I investigated further and find: http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/subversion-dev/201308.mbox/%3C00fc01ce9fe4$1c2bde80$54839b80$@qqmail.nl%3E ...so I now have serf and subversion built (Rebuild All: 89 succeeded, 0 failed, 0 skipped; running tests now). However, I am also seeing a _lot_ of warnings similar to: RC4011: identifier truncated to '_CRT_USE_WINAPI_FAMILY_DESKTOP_' C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\VC\include\string.h ...can you help with those? The search results I have so far were not very enlightening. ~ mark c
