Building in MSVC2017 (Windows 10 x64): _mkdir

[DJuego]

Hi! Thank you for this apparenty excellent contribution! :-)

I work in Windows 10 x64 with Microsoft Visual Studio 2017 and I have a problem with the gaga compilation:

1>------ Build started: Project: prueba_gaga_msvc2017, Configuration: Release x64 ------
1>main.cpp
1>p:\mis-proyectos\personal\prueba_gaga\inc\gaga\gaga.hpp(1617): error C2065: '_mkdir': undeclared identifier
1>p:\mis-proyectos\personal\prueba_gaga\inc\gaga\gaga.hpp(1617): error C3861: '_mkdir': identifier not found
1>p:\mis-proyectos\personal\prueba_gaga\inc\gaga\gaga.hpp(1617): note: '_mkdir': function declaration must be available as none of the arguments depend on a template parameter

I have added to gaga.hpp the lines:

#ifdef _WIN32
#include<direct.h>
#else

#endif

It seems work. At least the code compiles.

Thank you again!

GAGA is now "officially" a C++17 library, and all the file & directory operations have been handed over to std::filesystem. This should fix most of the portability issues as long as you have a recent enough compiler.
I haven't had the occasion to test it on Windows but it should work. I'd appreciate if you can try again on your setup.

Yes, I can confirm that it works! Thanks for taking a look at this.
