[nvmewin] Building for Windows 8 and Windows 8+

[Alex Chang]

Hi all,

 

I agree that it would be very convenient just like other open sources if
we have the associated VS 2012 solution/project files released. They
will be ready early next week. Please note that the solution/project
files are for free builds only. If you need to do check builds, you may
configure from Project  Configuration Property after launching the
solution files.

 

Thanks,

Alex

I think Robert makes an important point below.

 

Where are the VS solutions (both free and checked build) that were used
to build OFA release 1.2?  To establish/be able to rely on a stable
reproducible baseline, we cannot not all use private build environments.

 

To do so risks running into potentially serious divergences in driver
behavior/stability such as that which was uncovered when some were
building with the old COMPLETE_IN_DPC flag while others of us were not.
It also potentially wastes a lot of dev/test time.

 

Second question:  which tools were used? VS 2012 or 2013? WDK 8.0 or
8.1?

 

Thanks,

Judy

All,

 

Are there plans to supply a build environment for v8 of the WDK and
forward?  The current source tree appears to rely only on the older
tools (build, etc).  With Microsoft forcing folks to use Visual Studio
11 / 2012 starting with v8 of the WDK does everyone use a private build
environment or are there plans to add a VS Solution or VS compatible
makefile to the repository?  I tend to be IDE agnostic and prefer
makefiles but either one would work fine.

 

I may be able to volunteer for the task...

 

Best regards,

Robert.
