OK, so I am trying with Visual C++ 2005 Express. After working around most of the errors, I got one (hopefully...) left - fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file ‘atl.lib’ chrome_dll
The last error that I resolved before that, was almost the same, but “atlz” instead of “atl” in the file name. So I went to the chrome_dll properties and chose to dynamically link ATL and it worked. But then I got the above error and I am at a loss. Any ideas? ☆PhistucK On Tue, Nov 17, 2009 at 04:03, Marc-Antoine Ruel <mar...@google.com> wrote: > Dominic, you should turn /WX off globally in src/build/common.gypi. > That would simplify the patch. > > I guess the incremental link failure is due to the exe size on a 32 > bit OS, I'll mark it as a large binary so you can remove that step > too. > > M-A > > On Mon, Nov 16, 2009 at 8:58 PM, Bradley Nelson <bradnel...@google.com> > wrote: > > That's good to hear! > > I see you are mainly just turning off warnings as errors in a few spots. > > Is this something that we can either gate in the build based on some > flag, > > or are the warnings something that we could fix properly in the source? > I'd > > love to peel off more steps from the process. > > -BradN > > On Mon, Nov 16, 2009 at 5:44 PM, Dominic Jodoin < > dominic.jod...@gmail.com> > > wrote: > >> > >> Hey Brad! > >> > >> I just wanted to let you know that this is working great for me on > >> VC++ 2008 Express Edition.
