Visual C++ 2010 Beta

[jgutierrez]

Acording to the Visual C++ Team Blog, VC++ 2010 Beta, generates code that is about 10% faster than 2008, and a bit more than that when generating x64 code.

Obviously the numbers may be higher by MS, but seems that VC++ 2010 is a good choice for Shareaza in terms of increasing speed, and reducing code size. Some other open source projects have already upgraded to it, like 7-Zip 9.08.

Any chance of building with it?

Try it out and post the results over here

[ocexyz]

ohh yes, let us know effects

[jgutierrez]

I would say that post your results over here, and let us know effect should be equivalent comments, but anyway, thank you very much for helping

[old_death]

Helping? Did you ask us to help you? :p

This was not a joke. Shareaza survives because of the combined effort of many people. That's why we wanted to ask you to do your part. As you are apparently reading the M$ Visual C++ Team Blog, you are probably not an average user - only those using visual studio are potentially interested in reading such an article - that's why you're probably also able to build Shareaza and tell us about the results.

That is right, that was not to be a joke. And please, do not forget to enable Win2000 compatibility during compilation. Needed.

My test run with VS2010 is that the IDE was sooo buggy that it crashed on every step of starting up, or opening a file ... so I gave up before even attemting to compile for fear of crashing while compiling. The beta I was running was quite recent, but still not stable to any degree. MS should of called it a Alpha.

I tried to compile latest repository source with Visual Studio 2008, just to make sure it is possible.
The process ended with failing references to ZLIB (it is strange because the repository already includes it), and some others to boost library.
Tryied to download boost 1.40, and putting it onto \trunk\HashLib\boost and \trunk\boost but no luck.
Have found some compilation guides at http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/s ... ed.Compile but seems they are outdated.
Any clue on what pre-compile steps I need to do?

[wildcard_25]

I have been compiling Shareaza with VC10 for about a month now.
Most plugins still won't compile, looks like a MIDL parsing bug, but I haven't looked into it further.
To get Shareaza to compile required some major modifications to the project files and a number a changes to Shareaza's source code, some of these changes I have already committed. Some changes need a major re-working rather than the hacks I've used to get it to compile and run, I'm working on those

Additional info - compiling with Boost 1.41.

I think the guide on the trac dev wiki is more up-to-date:
