Unable to follow "Getting started" because of compile errors

[honix]

Hi!

I'm trying to build and run bootstrap app following steps of Getting started page. CMake build are fine, as I understand the next step is to open sln project and press green "Run" button in Visual Studio. But unfortunately when I trying to compile it, 13 errors occured.

Some errors (sorry, no desc because it shows to me in russian):

C2666 Corrade\Containers\GrowableArray.h::1200
C2672 Corrade\Containers\GrowableArray.h::1200
C2780 Corrade\Containers\GrowableArray.h::1200
...
C2666 Corrade\Utility\Format.cpp::426
C2666 Magnum\Implementation\ImageProperties.h::73	
...

My system: Windows 10, Visual Studio 2022, C++14

Hi!

Sorry for the trouble, thse errors are most probably due to MSVC 2022 not being supported by the code at the moment. Please see mosra/corrade#124 for a temporary workaround.

If you can wait a bit, I'm actually working on fixing MSVC 2022 support right now -- resolving last remaining issues, optimistically that'll be done sometime tomorrow. Stay tuned!

[sorry for the accidental close, pressed way too many keys at once by accident 💥]

I did a fresh cmake build with -DMSVC2019_COMPATIBILITY=ON as you did mention, and this solves the problem:

mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DMSVC2019_COMPATIBILITY=ON ..

Thanks!

This will be great! Btw I'll close this issue, as my problem is solved. Thanks again!

upd: sorry if you used this issue as task, reopen if you need to track it

[mosra]

Yes, I'll close this once it's fully resolved :]

Okay, in the end it went much faster than expected. If you update both Corrade and Magnum to latest master, it should just work, without having to specify any option. Details about changes done are in mosra/corrade#124.

Yep. I confirm it works now without special flags.

Here is cmake output, it contains warning message about MSVC_COMPATIBILITY, might be interesting:

Oh, this message (warning) is made by you. Huh.

[mosra]

Yeah, as much as I'd like it to finally behave, MSVC 2022 is still not ideal, and requires special handling. Maybe in 2025 it will.
