UltraVNC

Rudi,

Given the situation as described in my previeus mails, I completely understand. However the property manager setting seems to by messy.

Lets take vncviewer as example.
Open vncviewer.sln => expand vnc viewer => doubel click debug | Win32
output dir = $(SolutionDir)$(Configuration ...

Rudi,

Even in het nederlands dat is makkelijker :>

Ik probeer enigzinds te begrijpen hoe het VS2010 C++ configuratie management in elkaar zit. Haast bizar en ik begrijp nog lang niet alles

- info onder andere verkregen via
* according to VS => tools => options => vc++ directorys => ? the ...

Rudi,

Did you read my previeus two mails?
I really think it is not ok!

I also noted that inlude / lib directorys seems to be specified per result type (x86/x64 etc).
I noticed that you did include the direct x references in the x64 tree, but not in the x86 tree.

I have been loking where to ...

Rudi,

I think I understand the problems now:
- why I could link sometimes and sometimes not and
- why the binairys can't be used
The problems are related !!

To start with there is a major problem related to the config files:
- x64 should in x64 or x64/debug
- 32 should be in x86 or x86/debug ...

Rudi,


1) Do not know why, but I can build the viewer now (both computers), also without administrator rights.

I tried batch build debug vnc 64 when on the screen that one was seleced, os easier batch rebuild solution

However than I get the same error I got before with zlib !!

When starting the ...

Rudi,

I did another step. I installed VS2010 prof trail, nasm and direct X on a clean vista64 computer wthich had never seen visual studio any type before.

And did try to batch compile the viewer.
Guess what ........ same problem

For info vncviewer propertys after opening vncviewer.sln
General ...

Rudi,

Thanks. It did not work, exactly the same error.

But I agree it has something to do with settings! I am almost sure that the problem is related to your remark
> Output of the batchbuild is written in vncviewer\debug
> OUTPUT PATH depend on the top settings...
> BOTH batchbuild and top ...

Rudi,

I tried again to compile the latest sources.
I installed NASM and included the path.

I am quite sure there are (small) mistakes in the make files (what ever you call them here).

As example when compiling the viewer, I get the following error message

7> Generating Code...
7> vncauth.c

Ruid,

I just
- downloaded the latest tarbal
- installed nasm and added path
- did include references to my directx sdk path

And tryied to compile (build)

Rudi,

I just tried to debug S:\UltraVNC\zlib-1.2.5\contrib\vstudio\vc10\zlibstat.vcxproj.

It compiles, but despite the compiler message the output file si not there.

It is probably related. Also see my mail in that forum for more info.

I also searched for the file, but did not find it at all ...

Rudi,

I think that the intention of your last replay was to point to a certain setting.

I looked at several places, but do not know where to find that setting (assuming that was what you where hinting at).

Rudi,

From some where on the web (http://www.toymaker.info/Games/html/64_bit.html), quite old but so is the zlib code, may be related


Visual Studio 2003 does not support debugging 64 bit applications so I just created a release 64 bit configuration. You need to specify the target machine. This ...

Rudi,

I have been very bussy last days, but after restoring a backup, appling latest updates from every thing (followed by generation of a new backup) I have been installing:

It might be true that I tried to compile too much, but problem stays even when using the ^vncviewer.sln^

Rudi,

Thanks for all. I noticed one perhaps important difference within your example being you are starting VS with ^vncviewer.sln^ file where I was starting with ^vncviewer.vcxproj^.

However it did not solve my compiling problems.

So I decided to a releavively radical step, being to reinstall my ...

Rudi,

I discoverd that beside visual studio2010, you also need to install
- DirectX SDK (and incude that directorys in UVNC) and ....
- you also need to install windows 7.1 SDK (x86,x64,Itanium)

Rudi,

I hope to solve the zlib related debug blokking binairy format issue. As a temporairely step:
- I would like to check if the md5 sum of the debug binairys as compiled by jou reaaly differ (if the problem is what the message sugest)
- and if so temporarely use your zlib debug binairys as a ...

Rudi,

My intention was to use the libjpeg.lib as generated on your machine as substitude for the one generated on my machine which seems to fail.

However the zip does not include de libjpeg directory.

First thing to check however is if the MD5's are identical (hoping the build does not include a ...

Thanks! Zip downloaded.

I will test later this week. I do not have time tomorrow,


Louis

Thanks!

a few points:

- I noticed yesterday that I had to compile the project in a certain order

We are looking into the same part of the code, somewhere area the problem must be.

I was just wondering about things like:

- what is their task

Also looking into codeparts which surprise me, but that can ...

Rudi,

I tested with

It did not solve the problem


Louis

Rudi,

That it is not working correctly, has every thing to do with multi thread and async.

That kind of technics are wonderfull, however you should exactly know what you are doing and take care about really asured wait signals / synchronisation points.

I am not familier with the code and also ...
