That’s clear, the instruction under the link suggests to build V8 as static library, which we already know to be working. But the point was to build and use V8 as DLL. Meanwhile, I’ve found following workaround: add 2 new custom functions to the libplatform, the first one returns normal pointer extracted from return value of the NewDefaultPlatform() and second to delete v8::Platform object (this is to ensure we use both new and delete from libc++), and export these functions from DLL. This way I’ve gotten rid of dependency on the std::unique_ptr version coming from libc++. And based on this experience I’d generally suggest to V8 developers to keep all public V8 APIs w/o any STL stuff for the sake of better integration with different compilers, which with very high probability have different STL implementations than libc++. - Ivan

If you're already building V8 successfully with MSVC, you should be able to skip down to the "Embedding V8 into a custom application" part. https://medium.com/angular-in-depth/how-to-build-v8-on-windows-and-not-go-mad-6347c69aacd4<https://medium.com/angular-in-depth/how-to-build-v8-on-windows-and-not-go-mad-6347c69aacd4> Disclaimer: As should be obvious by now (and by the above post), this stuff is a moving target (e.g. changing compilers and build outputs over time), non-trivial, and not a first-class supported scenario. The "well trodden" and best supported path is to build your code via a new BUILD.gn target with Clang along with the rest of V8, that way you can ensure your compiler and build settings are all consistent, and the dependencies are largely managed for you. Good luck! - Bill On Wednesday, December 18, 2019 at 3:09:50 AM UTC-8, Bad_At_Life wrote: Ok Bill Then I'll build it statically with "is_component_build = false". I don't really need them to be dynamic, I just need them to work. What file extension should I look for? .lib?
