Issue while Compiling UltraVnc Source code with VS2017.

[vineeta1shukla]

Hello,

I took latest code (ultravnc-code-r1200) from the Site and trying to compile the Source Code (vncviewer_vs2017) with vs 2017.
I am facing some issue on Project "libjpeg-turbo-win" It seems .asm (Assembly) files are not compiling through Visual studio 2017.
because all the .Obj files of .asm files are missing .
So my query is how we compile .asm files through vs2017, any settings?

Any lead would be appreciated..

You need to install an assembler compiler. ( nasm)
You can dowload it from
https://www.nasm.us/

hello,

Assembler compiler. ( nasm) is already installed on my machine. still facing the same issue.
Note - I am using vs2017 community version.

You need to add the exe path to VS
In my case
Jpeg ->Properties->VC++ Directories ->Executable Directories C:\Program Files\nasm;$(ExecutablePath)
Check were you installed nasm could also be X86 folder or some other custom folder

Thanks for the reply..

Nasm.Exe path is already in the VS. I think Nasm related settings are good Beacuse i am able to build old version of UltaVNC 1.2.0.5 with the visual studio 2015 community version from my computer.

Is there any other settings related to vs2017 which i need to do to compile the .asm files.
Note- Using Windows 10 operating system.
Please suggest.

No, nasm need to be in the exe path taht's all.
