Merge #11526: Visual Studio build configuration for Bitcoin Core
ef7beae Visual Studio build configuration for Bitcoin Core (Aaron Clauson) Pull request description: This PR allows Bitcoin Core to be relatively easily built with Visual Studio 2017. It's anticipated that it could be useful for devs familiar with Visual Studio and Microsoft's tooling. In particular the ability to use the VS debugger is a big benefit. ~~Caveats:~~ - ~~There are some minor code changes required on Bitcoin Core in order for msvc to be able to successfully compile. I'll submit them in a separate PR, The code changes are available in #11528 #11558 and #11562~~. - ~~The vcpkg for SECP256K1 has not yet been accepted by Microsoft. The files are available from this [PR](microsoft/vcpkg#2005) and should be copied into a vcpkg/ports/secp256k1 directory prior to vcpkg install steps.~~ **Update:** For anyone wishing to test out the Visual Studio build with the various open pull requests the steps are: - Clone and build [Vcpkg](https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg) (Microsoft's new open source C/C++ package manager) - git clone https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg - .\bootstrap-vcpkg.bat - Set up Visual Studio to automatically reference vcpkg installs: .\vcpkg integrate install - Install the required packages (replace x86 with x64 as required): - vcpkg install boost:x86-windows-static - vcpkg install libevent:x86-windows-static - vcpkg install openssl:x86-windows-static - vcpkg install zeromq:x86-windows-static - vcpkg install berkeleydb:x86-windows-static - vcpkg install secp256k1:x86-windows-static - vcpkg install leveldb:x86-windows-static - git clone https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin.git - git checkout -b testbuild - git pull origin pull/11526/head # Visual Studio build configuration for Bitcoin Core - ~~git pull origin pull/11558/head # Minimal code changes to allow msvc compilation~~ - ~~git pull origin pull/11562/head # bench: use std::chrono rather than gettimeofday~~ - ~~Copy and unzip attached bitcoin-config.h to src/config, edit as required [bitcoin-config.zip](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/files/1429484/bitcoin-config.zip)~~ - ~~git pull origin pull/13031/head # gmtime fix for msvc~~ - Build the Visual Studio solution which, if successful, will result in all but the Qt dependent libraries/programs being built. If the build fails please add a comment. Tree-SHA512: 5cd17273d33a09c35d8534c9f49123dec60ec05383669c67674b2cac88ada177bf94d7731c2a827759444f18d4b67085b91b02458124d0c32ab3a8f72ba5dac9

Building Bitcoin Core with Visual Studio
2+
========================================
3+
4+
Introduction
5+
---------------------
6+
Solution and project files to build the Bitcoin Core applications (except Qt dependent ones) with Visual Studio 2017 can be found in the build_msvc directory.
7+
8+
Building with Visual Studio is an alternative to the Linux based [cross-compiler build](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/build-windows.md).
9+
10+
Dependencies
11+
---------------------
12+
A number of [open source libraries](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/dependencies.md) are required in order to be able to build Bitcoin.
13+
14+
Options for installing the dependencies in a Visual Studio compatible manner are:
15+
16+
- Use Microsoft's [vcpkg](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/vcpkg) to download the source packages and build locally. This is the recommended approach.
17+
- Download the source code, build each dependency, add the required include paths, link libraries and binary tools to the Visual Studio project files.
18+
- Use [nuget](https://www.nuget.org/) packages with the understanding that any binary files have been compiled by an untrusted third party.
19+
20+
The external dependencies required for the Visual Studio build are (see the [dependencies doc](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/dependencies.md) for versions):
21+
22+
- Berkeley DB,
23+
- OpenSSL,
24+
- Boost,
25+
- libevent,
26+
- ZeroMQ
27+
28+
Additional dependencies required from the [bitcoin-core](https://github.com/bitcoin-core) github repository are:
29+
- SECP256K1,
30+
- LevelDB
31+
32+
Building
33+
---------------------
34+
The instructions below use vcpkg to install the dependencies.
35+
36+
- Clone and vcpkg from the [github repository](https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg) and install as per the instructions in the main README.md.
37+
- Install the required packages (replace x64 with x86 as required):
38+
- Install the required dependencies with vcpkg:
39+
40+
```
41+
PS >.\vcpkg install boost:x64-windows-static `
42+
libevent:x64-windows-static `
43+
openssl:x64-windows-static `
44+
zeromq:x64-windows-static `
45+
berkeleydb:x64-windows-static `
46+
secp256k1:x64-windows-static `
47+
leveldb:x64-windows-static
48+
```
49+
50+
- Build in Visual Studio.
