All,
I'm hoping this is the right mailing list: the apr project seems to have
a "dev" list but no user one. I'm happy to move if appropriate.
I'm trying to build apr on win32 from the command-line and I'm running
into some resistance. I'm using Visual Studio 12 on Windows 8.1. I have
installed the "Windows SDK" as well to try to help, but it doesn't seem
to have improved things.
I'm following the instructions found here:
http://apr.apache.org/compiling_win32.html
I have downloaded the ZIP files for apr, apr-util, and apr-iconv and put
them into the requisite directories.
I've run VS's VC\bin\vcvars32.bat to get the build tools in the path,
but I don't have a setenv.bat anywhere (suggested in the above
instructions). When I get to the step where I run "msdev" (which
basically /does the build/), I can't find the msdev program:
C:\Users\Me\Desktop\apr-util>msdev aprutil.dsw /MAKE "apriconv - Win32
Release"
'msdev' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
I'm no win32 build expert, but I have quite a bit of experience building
on *NIX systems. Can anyone help me get things going on Windows?
Thanks,
-chris
