Hi, I'm looking at build-svn-deps-win.pl (in tools/dev) and I have a number of problems which I'm hoping to address in the near future:
- The download URL for AWK now return 404. I'm suggesting to replace it with http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/downlinks/gawk-bin-zip.php (this will require a bit of adjustments in the script since the download is now a ZIP file, but I believe I have this running). Does anyone have a better idea where to get a compiled AWK for Windows? - I'm using Visual Studio 2022 which doesn't seem to contain the vcupgrade.exe program. The following seems to work, but I'm not a Perl expert. Can someone advice if I'm doing anything particularly stupid? # using the vcupgrade command here because it has a consistent name and version # numbering across versions including express versions. # however it doesn't exist in Visual Studio 2022, so try it but fall-back to # to devenv in case of failure. my $help_output = ""; unless($help_output = `"$VCUPGRADE" /? 2>NUL:`) { unless($help_output = `"$DEVENV" /? 2>NUL:`) { die("Neither $VCUPGRADE or $DEVENV was found in path. Unable to detemine\n" . "Visual Studio version. \n"); } } - The dependencies are quite old. I'm planning to upgrade these whenever possible, but I'll do that step by step when I get the build going. Kind regards, Daniel
