JointLibary MD linking

[Julio Jerez]

Oh yes the project configuration was mixing some of the md with mt
I think I have them all fix now, please sync and try again

do not try bash build with VS 2010 is doe no work you nee to build each configuration one at a time
Microsoft broke that functionality in 2010 and their solution for 2012 was to remove it altogether. That I a many people still use VS 2008
the newer version are more modern but it takes Microsoft three or four generation to get a newton functionality right.
we will probably nee to wait for 2014 for a but free version of visual studio.

I've synched again. I get the same error's as before. The new projects for 2012 doesn't contain the md configuration. So I opened the 2010 project in visual studio 2012 and build in Debug_md. And I get the same error's again. I think we will get this to work.

[Julio Jerez]

this have to be a bug with VS 2012, I do not think it handle multiple configurations, when the project are imported from VS2010.
I did this and I still have in my disk, but when to SVN and I download to a different folder the project are all wrong.

Last night the same problem happen, I I thought I made a mistake, by now I have tow VS open in one the project is right, the second is wrong. I can not compare the one I have open to the one that I download because VS lock the file assess.

what I am going to do is that I will make tow solutions, one MT and another MD
the will be what CMake will generate, but Believe that will be a simpler way that Having all the configuration into one solution.
I will also move all of the project to one forder, that will make is simple as well.

I have to go to work now, I will do that when I come back.

[FSA]

Any news on that?

[Julio Jerez]

ok I added new forder for Vs 2012 each compile only debug and realese configurations

the folder define the runtime libraries that the linkl to, for example for Md you open

..\newton-dynamics\packages\projects\visualStudio_2012_static_md\build.sln


I only made the buiodl directory which only contain the newt SDK libraries, later I see if I can make the demos whi require me to do the same for all the dependencies.
but now you should be able to compile MD static libraries

if this work I will apply the same to VS 2010 and 2008.
This will be what Cmake will generate, so maybe nex week I see if I can comlet the CMake project to have then make automatically.

sync and try again, see if it works now.

[FSA]

OK that's crazy. There're still some linker errors. I made a video about what I'm exactly doing. Maybe I'm just too stupid for that.
Please take a look. To download, click the circled download button in the picture below. Sorry dropbox is compressing the video.

[FSA]

Sorry when I'm annoying but I can't build my project without resovling this problem. Have you found any bugs in the video I made?

[Julio Jerez]

I saw the video, I saw that you did not copy the libraries dependencies of newton_d.lib
It looks like VS2012 does no copy that setting when importing form VS2010 solutions.
I added now. Sync again.

after you build you do no nee to get all the libraries, only newton_d.lib and dJointLibrary_d.lib for debug
for release just copy newton.lib and dJointLibrary.lib
all the dependencies are appended to those libraries.

I wonder if I should append the all into just one, but that a different problem, for now try that see if it works

[FSA]

Yay it works under Debug mode! Maybe you've forgot somehting in release? When I link release version there are these error's:

But debug works now!!

[Julio Jerez]

I think in your project you did not add preprocessor: _NEWTON_STATIC_LIB
by default the engine build dlls. See if that's the problem.

[FSA]

Yes my fault. It works now! Very very big thank you
