Some of the topics merged were big, this has been a common theme when
getting Windows builds.

I can take a look at resurrecting the builder, that machine had its
hard drive die so I would need to add it back in.

Totally in favor, thanks for the extra info. Who is going to work on
that? Sounds like things have improved.

[Avogadro-devel] Windows Build for v1.2

2016-01-13 Thread Geoffrey Hutchison
Hi Marcus,

My undergrad this term is working on a Windows build (using VS 2015). He's had 
some problems with variable length array declarations and with linking.

I'd like to get a v1.2 build finalized - do you still have the CDash build bot 
for Windows on v1.x master?

Assuming we can get everything built, I'd like to add a crash reporter to the 
Windows build to debug some of the hard-to-understand random crashes people 
mention. While Breakpad is used in lots of apps (e.g., Mozilla, Chrome, 
Mendeley) getting the server running might be tricky.
