[PATCH 0/1] contrib/buildsystems: fix Visual Studio Debug configuration

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Even though Debug configuration builds, the resulting build is incorrect in
a subtle way: it mixes up Debug and Release binaries, which in turn causes
hard-to-predict bugs.

In my case, when git calls iconv library, iconv sets 'errno' and git then
tests it, but in Debug and Release CRT those 'errno' are different memory
locations.

This patch addresses 3 connected bugs: 1) Typo in '(Configuration)'. As a
result, Debug configuration condition is always false and Release path is
taken instead. 2) Regexp that replaced 'zlib.lib' with 'zlibd.lib' was only
affecting the first occurrence. However, some projects have it listed twice.
Previously this bug was hidden, because Debug path was never taken. I
decided that avoiding double -lz in makefile is fragile and I'd better
replace all occurrences instead. 3) In Debug, 'libcurl-d.lib' should be used
instead of 'libcurl.lib'. Previously this bug was hidden, because Debug path
was never taken.
