i'va just downloaded luajit and trying to compile it. i'm doing everything as it says here
to compile it i should execute msvcbuild from VS .NET Command Promt. so i installed VS 2010 and started VS 2010 Command Promt
and when i try to execute nsvcbuild it says "no such program and bla-bla-bla".
first i thought that there was no environment path. so i decided to find file msvcbuild.exe inside Program Files folder. and there is no such file.
what am i doing wrong and what should i do to compile luajit?
any help appriciated!
Required steps to build using Visual Studio 2010:
open VS 2010 command prompt window
set up appropriate VS environment: e.g. vcvarsall.bat x64 (for 64-bit) or vcvarsall.bat x86 (for 32-bit)
go to luajit src directory: e.g. cd \projects\luajit\src
start the build: msvcbuild.bat

I use ninja as the build tool of cmake, ninja build parallelly. When build in the physical machine, it compiles without any problem, but in a Windows docker container, it reports:
fatal error C1041: cannot open program database 'blabla.pdb'; if multiple CL.EXE write to
the same .PDB file, please use /FS
The compiler is MSVC 2015, but the /FS seems a 2012 or 2013 option, after add /FS to the CXX flags:
The C++ compiler
"C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0/VC/bin/cl.exe"
is not able to compile a simple test program.
It compiles without problem if I just use one core.
I have searched the web for a long time, but no useful information found.
I need to build the components, package, and project file without using the Delphi XE7 RAD Studio IDE. Is there some way to do this using command line instead?
When you installed RAD Studio, it added a shortcut in the start menu named RAD Studio Command Prompt. Execute that shortcut. You now have a command prompt window for an environment that includes all you need to build at the comment line.
Change directory to the directory containing your .dproj files.
Execute the following command: msbuild YourProjectName.dproj.
If you have multiple projects build them all. Of course you'd want to script all this up in due course.
Control the build target (clean, make, build) and configuration (debug, release, win32, win64) using command line arguments as documented here: http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/en/Building_a_Project_Using_an_MSBuild_Command

I downloaded the WDK 8.1 and samples and using Win 7 Debug Win32 build configuration while building with Visual Studio 2013 for the "Scanner File System Minifilter Driver" sample solution. It successfully built the solution.
The build output 3 files of interest to me:
1) scanner.sys (the scanner file system minifilter driver)
2) scanuser.exe (the user-land executable that talked to the driver)
3) scanner.inf (driver installation file)
I copied the files over to my VMware virtual machine (XP 32-bit, in this case) and installed the driver using the .inf file which put the appropriate registry keys in the registry and put a copy of the .sys file into C:\Windows\System32\drivers. Then I ran "net start scanner" which started the driver successfully.
So far, this all worked fine. However ...
When I ran the scanuser.exe file it says it's not a valid Win32 application.
How do I go about testing this if I can't run the executable?
Are there build options I have to set in order for this to work?
Out of the box, Visual Studio 2013 will not produce executable that will run on Windows XP.
You must change the platform toolset:
In the Property Pages dialog box for the project, under Configuration Properties, General, set the Platform Toolset property to the desired Windows XP toolset. For example, choose Visual Studio 2012 – Windows XP (v110_xp) to create code that is binary compatible with the Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Redistributable libraries.
In a similar project, I used the Visual Studio 2010 toolset.
I was hoping to upgrade to F# 3.0 but I can't find either a packaged F# 3.0 compiler on Microsoft site, nor if there is an express version to use. Is it possible to install F# 3.0 for use from the command line or a simple IDE and if so, how?
The standalone version of F# is not available yet, but F# tools for Visual Studio Express have been released just 2 days ago, so you can get F# 3.0 for free.
Announcing F# Tools for Visual Studio Express 2012 for Web!
As far as I know, there are definitely plans for open-source release (that can be integrated with MonoDevelop) and it would make sense to have a stand-alone installer too (otherwise you could still just compile the open-source release), but I don't think there are specific dates for that.
The easiest way I've got it to run:
http://www.heartysoft.com/build-fsharp-3-on-build-server-without-vs
Essentially using the direct download link on the Web PI tools.
I have successfully make a standalone F# 3.0 works without Visual Studio 2012.
First, find a workstation with F# 3.0 installed. (source)
Duplicate all the things to destination workstation.
-> C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\F#
-> C:\Program Files (x86)\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\FSharp
-> C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\assembly\GAC_MSIL\FSharp*
Install .NET 4.5 at destination.
Export all the registry item with FSC.exe string to destination.
Export all the registry item with FSharp string to destination.
f# 3.0 registry.rar
if you don't know how to export the registry items, please download this file and use powershell to import all this .reg file.
PowerShell script: (put the .reg files into c:\xxx suppossedly )
cd c:\xxx
dir *.reg | %{ ('reg import "' + $_.Name + '"') | cmd }
I'm assuming most of you seeking an answer to this question by now probably wouldn't mind the most recent version, which is 4.0. You can download this as a standalone at F# 4.0 . This does not include the supporting assemblies and will fail by itself. So you'll also have to download and install the Microsoft Build Tools 2015 . Should be all set to go from there, no installing the mega-massive visual studio. Of course if you need an IDE you'll need to seek out a free one.
You can use Nuget CLI to install the F# Compiler Tools without relying on Visual Studio. As a plus, this procedure does not require admin rights.
Visit nuget.org/downloads and download the latest nuget.exe file.
Instruct your browser to save the file to a folder of your choice.
Add the folder where you placed nuget.exe to your PATH environment variable to use the CLI tool from anywhere.
Open a command prompt and navigate to the folder where you want to install F# Tools.
Run "nuget install FSharp.Compiler.Tools -Version {version}", where {version} is replaced with a version from https://www.nuget.org/packages/FSharp.Compiler.Tools
Add the 'tools' directory to your PATH Environment Variable and then you will be able to use fsc and fsi from the command line.
There is not currently a standalone version of F# 3.0. However, one has been promised
I run F# 3.0 from the cygwin command line on Windows 7. You need to know a little about Linux/Unix to use cygwin, but the basics are not too difficult. You need the basic cygwin shell (command interpreter) and an editor. I am used to vi, so cygwin has vim (there exists a nice F# syntax color addon to vim).
You need to:
Install visual studio in order to get F#
in /users/myname/.bashrc add the location of Fsc.exe, which in my case is
/cygdrive/c/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft SDKs/F#/3.0/Framework/v4.0
to your PATH.
I converted VS2006 vc++ project to VS2008. When compiling I get the above error. How do i fix it? am I missing this exe ?
There is a bug in the Visual Studio 2008 Standard Edition installer. It does not install cl.exe if you only install Visual C++ but not Visual C#. To work around this you have to install Visual C# even if you do not need this.
cl.exe is VS2008 (and any other VS) C/C++ compiler, so check for more detailed error message why it cannot be spawned. Be sure you've installed C++ language support when installing VS2008.
It could be that your "path" environment variable does not contain the path to the folder where cl.exe is located.
Another possible reason could be that when installing VS2008, you did not select the option to install the Win32 tools (which include the command line compiler).
In any case, you may want to try to repair the installation of VS2008 (by running its setup via Control Panel - Add/Remove Programs), or use its "Add/Remove components" option and add the "Win32 tools" option (under Visual C++ - Visual C++ Tools).
I had this problem under Windows 10 and solved it by adding the following paths to the PATH environment variable:
C:\ProgramFilesC\VS2008\Common7\IDE
C:\ProgramFilesC\VS2008\VC\bin\x86_amd64
where C:\ProgramFilesC\VS2008 is the path where I installed Visual Studio.
Actually this error occurs because of path is not correctly set.
Goto Tools>Options>Directories> show directories for > Select Executable files
Here copy the path address from the folder where you installed and paste that path address
G:\Program files\vb (visual basic) 6.0\Visual Basic 6.0\VC98\BIN
then click OK.
This may work for you.
