Hi, Hugo and Tom
Just for information. I have followed the instructions (long time ago) on the Wiki page to configure with Cmake to build FluidSynth v 1.1.3 with Visual Studio (vs 6.0). 1)The normal difficulty encountered was (as far i remember) , the dependencies packages referenced by Cmake (glib (mandatory), and others components options chosen by the developper in the Cmake GUI). We need to run Cmake several times as it help to identify the necessary packages. Once theses package are installed, Cmake find Vs 6.0 and Vs 10 (but i have choosen Vs6.0 ). The log of Cmake was success (Generating done). Cmake have generated the project files for Vs6.0. 2)The following steps are the building process using Visual Studio. Notes: Here are the 3 errors and temporary fix encountered at build time: 2.1) In fluid_phase.h (since or before v 1.0.9) type typedef unsigned long long fluid_phase_t; is not accepted. fix: I have replaced this type by ULONGLONG. (In macros, unsigned long long has been replaced par fluid_phase_t). 2.2)In fluid_winmidi.c: type DWORD_PTR has not be found fix: I think there is a missing .h somewhere. I have temporary replaced DWORD_PTR by DWORD (waiting for the best fix). 2.3)In fluid_sys.c: function fluid_server_socket_run(). unresolved. fix: The function calling inet_ntop() has been replaced by those of v 1.1.3 (waiting for a best fix). 3)As usual, at execution time we need to set the Path variable to point on the directory dlls ( glib dlls, others dlls ). I have followed theses steps for FluidSynth since v1.0.9 (without Cmake), v1.1.3 until v 1.1.6 (with Cmake) and the difficulties was of the same order (not fully painless but not too complicated). As Tom say, Cmake log and Vs log will be helpful to adapt the wiki page if necessary.

I cant really help with Visual Studio. I know it's usually a pain to get it work. However the wiki should be editable by any registered github user, so anyone is free to update it or simply clone the wiki locally, edit the markdown and email me any suggestions. > > Hugo: You could however tell us which version of fluidsynth you were using and whether you were using cmake or autotools. And providing a full build log might also help. > > Tom > > > 2017-09-26 3:44 GMT+02:00 Hugo Estrada : > Hi, > I followed the visual studio instructions found in the github wiki to build fluidsynth. I kept solving one problem after another until I I couldn't seem to move forward. This makes me feel that those instructions may be old, and that the Visual Studio solution and build is not supported anymore. > > I see instructions with cmake, and instructions with mingw and msys . I cannot use cygwin, it doesn't work well on my machine. So what would be the recommended way to build in windows now? > Thanks in advance, > Hugo > _______________________________________________ > fluid-dev mailing list > fluid-dev@nongnu.org > https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/fluid-dev > > > _______________________________________________ fluid-dev mailing list fluid-dev@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/fluid-dev
