Cannot build on windows following readme instructions, cmake logs and error that pthreads.h not found

Answer 1 · 2021-10-07T18:51:59.000Z

What compiler are you using? GCC or MSVC? Also, could you provide the version of the compiler and the full log from CMake please?

Answer 2 · 2021-10-07T22:36:57.000Z

@matusnovak I am using Visual Studio 2017 below is the CMakeError

Determining if the include file pthread.h exists failed with the following output:

Answer 3 · 2021-10-08T04:09:52.000Z

When building I noticed the following error

C:\Users\kbabi\Documents\GitHub\book\doxybook2\src\DoxybookCli\main.cpp(18,36): warning C4003: not enough arguments for function-like macro invocation 'str' [C:\Users\kbabi\Documents\GitHub\book\doxybook2\New folder\src\DoxybookCli\Doxybook2Cli.vcxproj]
C:\Users\kbabi\Documents\GitHub\book\doxybook2\src\DoxybookCli\main.cpp(18,49): error C2059: syntax error: ';' [C:\Users\kbabi\Documents\GitHub\book\doxybook2\New folder\src\DoxybookCli\Doxybook2Cli.vcxproj]

Fixing it allowed me to build the project

Hi @Babilinski

Your previous error:

fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'pthread.h': No such file or directory

Seems to indicate that the problem might be with your Visual Studio 2017 installation. Did you install all of the C++ features within Visual Studio?

About the second one:

main.cpp(18,49): error C2059: syntax error: ';'

This seems to be due to the following line:

static const std::string version = xstr(VERSION);

The VERSION is supposed to be replaced by a defined variable (i.e. -DVERSION=xyz) through CMake. The version is being set from the git command output. Perhaps something went wrong during CMake setup and the VERSION was incorrectly set. Nevertheless, it's not a syntax error.

Answer 5 · 2021-10-14T04:02:17.000Z

Thank you ! The Cmake answer solved it! And you are right I had to install additional components and update my visual studio for it to run. I have been able to get the program to build and run .
