[Guide]How to Compile 2.4 Core

[Algorithm]

[Posted in a wrong section , iam new here, so please dont flame]

Hi Guys ,

I am not asking for rep all i am trying to do is provide some useful information to mmowned members.

I recently tried to compile new 2.4 core and always had errors and missing files. Stupid me! never bothered reading more on it.

here is why

If you getting errors that you missing files, i s because you are missing
"ascent-windows-libraries"

to download them
Filebeam - Free Fast File Hosting

all you have to do is , download the file

extract it with your unzip software

open your microsoft visual studio folder, find a folder "VC" , double click on it, and you will see 2 more folders "Include" and "Bin"

now go back to the ascent-windows-libraries folder (the one you downloaded), double click on "VC" - you will see 2 folders BIN and INCLUDE. copy contents of ascent-windows-libraries\bin to microsoftvisualstudio\vc\bin and copy contents of ascent-windows-libraries\include to microsoftvisualstudio\vc\include

Next, you need to compile the zlib and PCRE libraries.

go to ascent-windows-libraries\sources and compile
VS 2008: VC90-solution.sln
(or if you use other version select the proper file)

once you done

you should see a folder called Output_Release

copy the contents to microsoftvisualstudio\vc\lib

once you done that

go ahead and start compiling your ascent, it wont give any errors!
