Hello Benjamin,
If you have ~100gb to burn, the ms dev env is quite accessible (in ms
standards) nowadays:
https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/virtual-machines/
I've seen gyp-next but it was quite easy to get the vanilla version to
work so didn't really look into it.
If I were you, I'd just pay some consultant to migrate to CMake and be
done with it. Maybe it could be done in a semi-automated fashion using
the following route:
https://fuchsia.googlesource.com/build/+/b7c5b2083caa19eddb516f33b9ff13ffe260d5be/gypi_to_gn.py
https://github.com/google/skia/blob/main/gn/gn_to_cmake.py
After all, it only needs to work once.
Best regards,
Burak

Hi Burak,
Thanks for looking into this! If I am correct there is a gyp fork
maintained by Node.js and called gyp-next.
We have been contemplating moving NSS to use gyp-next but haven’t got
to try yet. Any chance you could have a look and see if building NSS
with gyp-next using MSVC 17 would work? (I don’t have that version of MSVC yet.)
Best,
Benjamin

Hello,
It's not possible to build NSS with GYP using MSVC 17 (Visual Studio
2022) because the required definitions are missing from MSVSVersion.py.
I forked and patched GYP so now it seems to work.
Fork is here:https://github.com/plq/gyp/
I added some patches from other forks that looked nice but actually only
this[1] patch is required, the rest is optional.
This is part of the work that tries to add NSS and NSPR ports to vcpkg:
https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/pull/21281
Best regards
Burak
