Confirmed build failed on node v12 v13. Need support on newer Node versions. Please bump priority of this.

Ubuntu 18.04 + node 12.16.1 + bignum 0.13.1 works.

The same error I see on Windows 8.1 (x64), when bignum installing as node-module.

>node --version
v12.3.1

Try to start:
npm install bignum
...
downloading packages...
then, this run
node-gyp rebuild
and...

I did try to install Visual Studio version 2017 on Windows 8.1 x64, but I got fail.
This wants to be installed update package: KB2919355.

Tried to install this, but... Picrelated:

Please paste ALL of the error text.

username1565 · 2020-08-10T15:01:21Z

@cclauss, what error do you mean? There is many different error. All this a one big and large error.
bignum try to run node-gyp rebuild but this fails, because this wants to be installed Visual Studio 2017,
but this can not be installed because some KB-updates must to be installed, but this can not be installed too...
Maybe... node-gyp rebuild can working with VS2008 or something else...
Or... Why to do not add a separate, independent, portable-compiler there??
And let this working on any windows on any platform, without that dependencies...

Run this command in the VS Command Prompt or set the shell variable VCINSTALLDIR to point to your Visual Studio 2019

Perhaps there is some clutter in npm config

Set the shell variable VCINSTALLDIR to point to your Visual Studio 2019

I did try to install this, but got fail. Screens, you can see here: #121 (comment)
This is, after try to install Visual Studio 2019 Comidity, and this wanted to be installet some KB-updates, which can not be installed...

Also, I have sucessfully installed on Windows 8.1 x64, the Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2019 Redistributable – 14.27.29016.0 (x64) (Stable version), and maybe, this must to have included MicroSoft Visual C++ 2015, MicroSoft Visual C++ 2017 and MicroSoft Visual C++ 2019... But I do not know in which folder this was been installed,
and which folder need to specify, as the value of VCINSTALLDIR-parameter.

Perhaps there is some clutter in npm config

Need to write something like npm config set msvs_version 2017 --global, but Visual Studio 2017 can not be installed,
so, after that, I just see:

gyp ERR! find VS
gyp ERR! find VS msvs_version was set from command line or npm config
gyp ERR! find VS - looking for Visual Studio version 2017
gyp ERR! find VS VCINSTALLDIR not set, not running in VS Command Prompt

Can you run Visual Studio and open a command prompt inside of Visual Studo?

cclauss · 2020-08-11T10:30:02Z

vswhere.exe -latest -property installationPath

username1565 · 2020-08-11T10:30:48Z

@cclauss
No, I can not install Visual Studio 2017, without that KB-updates, which can not be installed,
but I have already installed Visual Studio 2008, and I have the command prompt there,
and can open this with an Administrative rights... But this do not want to VS2008, even VS2013... This wants VS2017, which can not be installed on Windows 8.1 x64.

cclauss · 2020-08-11T10:31:04Z

set msvs_version 2019 --global

This is problem with installation of Visual Studio 2017/2019 on Windows 8.1 x64. I have no installed this yet (just VS2008 installed), and can not install this. It wants to be installed some KB123456_SOME_DIGITS-UpdatePackages, but this packages can not be installed...
Maybe I need to download the some installer, as one .zip, .exe, or .msi-file...
Also, maybe, you can use VS2008, and provide the backward-compatibility for this version,
to run node-gyp rebuild, if VS2008 is already installed.
