How to Build Feathercoin in Visual Studio 2013

claire

I have ported Feathercoin to Visual Studio 2013. The port includes all the MS project files, build scripts for dependencies, and minor code changes required for the VC compiler. The project will build both 32 and 64 bit versions of the daemon and Qt exe.

Peter has branched my port here: https://github.com/FeatherCoin/Feathercoin/tree/vs2013

Please make sure you study the readme.md file here before you start clicking away on the batch files: https://github.com/FeatherCoin/Feathercoin/blob/vs2013/MSVC/README.md

It has important information that you will need. The hardest part is building all the dependencies but I have written batch scripts that will do that for you. If you have any problems or suggestions to make it better, please let me know here.

Thanks,
Claire

Nice work Claire. I have now pulled your latest request to include the updated text files.

Hopefully we can entice some VS devs into Feathercoin with your work.

OK, I had build Feathercoin in Visual Studio 2013. I made â€‹â€‹some changes. I chose db-4.8.30.NC and openssl-1.0.1f . so I changed some of the file directory.

D:\FTC\Feathercoin-vs2013\bitcoindeps\qrencode-win32\vc8\Debug

D:\FTC\Feathercoin-vs2013\bitcoindeps\miniupnpc\msvc\Debug

D:\FTC\Feathercoin-vs2013\bitcoindeps\qt32\qtbase\plugins\platforms

D:\FTC\Feathercoin-vs2013\bitcoindeps\qt32\qtbase\lib

D:\FTC\Feathercoin-vs2013\bitcoindeps\db-4.8.30.NC\build_windows\Win32\Debug_static

D:\FTC\Feathercoin-vs2013\bitcoindeps\boost_1_55_0\stage\lib

D:\FTC\Feathercoin-vs2013\bitcoindeps\openssl-1.0.1f\out32.dbg

I get FeathercoinQt.exe, It`s size is 38.7MB ::)

But It can work.
