Hi Armin, I was going to try a newer version of VS but since your recipe called for either VS 2010 Express or VS 2012 Express ( https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP/wiki/Compilation) I used the 2012 version since I was hoping to minimize any compile issues and to replicate the builds that you have already had success.
What version of VS has you had success with? Please let me know and I will try to use it as the goal if this part of my test is to see if I can build the FreeRDP Shadow Server for the Windows platform as well. I have already been able to do it for the Linux (Ubuntu 18.04) side with: --------------- cmake -GNinja -DCHANNEL_URBDRC=ON -DWITH_DSP_FFMPEG=ON -DWITH_CUPS=ON -DWITH_PULSE=ON -DWITH_FAAD2=ON -DWITH_GSM=ON -DWITH_JPEG=ON -DWITH_SERVER=ON -DMONOLITHIC_BUILD=ON -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF .. cmake --build . ----------------------- On the Linux text, I was able run the shadow server on Ubuntu 18.04 (64-bit) and connect from a Windows 7 Pro (64-bit) RDP client. The shadow server seems to show that the plugins were loaded but the sound did not come across when I did a quick test (did not check for the other plugin capabilities yet.). What I would like to do is to build the shadow server possibly with static libraries to minimize library dependencies and then collect all of the binaries, and support files in a directory so that I can package up the binary build to put on another system, but not sure of the best way to go about this yet. You had a great suggestion about me looking into using the shadow server and I think that it will make an AWESOME base for me to build from. Any ideas on the best way to have a static build and package up the binaries? I thought that I saw a setting somewhere in my FreeRDP reading that allowed for static builds, but will have to go back to try and find that information, if I was correct. All-in-all, I would say that things are off to a very good start and I ml eager to see what I can do with the shadow server across the platforms initially after which I want to start customizing things in it for the seamless mode effort.
