Compilation with Visual Studio

[Nautigsam]

I am trying to compile with Visual Studio 2022 Community. I use CUDA 11.8 so I followed these instructions and installed MSVC v143 for VS 17.0.

Unfortunately I can not compile, I get this error:

crtdefs.h: no such file or directory

Does someone can share a combination of CUDA/MSVC that they use to compile without errors?

Okay I was able to force Visual Studio to use the correct MSVC version (14.30.30705). Now I get this error:

nvcc fatal   : Host compiler targets unsupported OS.

您好，我也遇到了同样的问题，请问你解决了吗

Try to install cuda 12.3 or higher and make sure that the configuration of the VS project in Release mode has selected the same version as you are using.

I've successfully installed CUDA 12.3, but the compilation still fails.

The error says that your current version of the MVSC compiler is not supported with that cuda. For that reason you need to install cuda 12.3 or higher. If cuda 12.3 is not allowed for your own setup, you should use a cuda compatible with that.

You have several options:

• Install a MVSC compatible with cuda 12.3.
  or
• Install a cuda comptaible with your MVSC (let's say cuda 12.8)
  or
• Add the flag (--allow-unsupported-compiler) suggested by the error message to avoid checking for unsupported compiler

Thank you.！I will proceed with a reinstallation. Additionally, I've noticed that the multi-resolution examples appear to be incompatible with CPU computation.

You are right. We are going to update the CPU scripts for VRes in the following days.
Thank you
