Windows build fails

[wholelottajam]

How we can build this project in Visual Studio, can you help please?

[ftk]

There are Quickjs forks that add visual studio support, also check "msvc" branch in this repo, it should work: https://github.com/ftk/quickjspp/tree/msvc

I tried msvc branch, also different quickjs windows forks but could not get rid of these errors when compiling examples

It works for me:

git clone --depth=1 --single-branch --branch=msvc --recursive https://github.com/ftk/quickjspp quickjsppwin
cd quickjsppwin
cmake -S . -B build
cmake  --build build
cd build
ctest .

cl /?
Microsoft (R) C/C++ Optimizing Compiler Version 19.29.30038.1 for x64
cmake --version
cmake version 3.19.1

Did you compile as C++17/C++20?

[wholelottajam]

Yeah I checked, it compiles with vs2019.
I tried it with Visual Studio 2017 (v15.9) with v141 toolset and I got errors during build.
Maybe that version does not supported. Thanks for respond.
