Building on windows?

Open lukkio88 opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

Hi,

Is it possible to build your tool on windows? I'm trying to, but I'm struggling but I want to know if I'll ever solve this.

Thank you.

Hi!

It should be possible to build this tool on Windows, but unfortunately I don't have the time to create visual studio solutions or the like. I'm not aware of any fundamental blockers that would make it impossible. One dependency, Suitesparse, is notoriously difficult to install on Windows, but this library should be configured to substitute Eigen routines instead if Suitesparse is not avaialbe.

The basic workflow would be to clone the project (including submodules), use CMake to generate a Visual Studio solution, then open and build the Visual Studio solution.

I can try to answer any further quick questions here, though I don't have time to dive in deeply.
