Windows 7; installed all of VS 2005 per

http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/wiki/CompileClient

svn co client and boinc_depends_win_vs2005 side-by-side as instructed.

The instructions say there should be a .sln file under boinc_depends_win_vs2005\win_build.

There's isn't. Instead there are a bunch of cmds which maybe constitute the new build.

I try to run build.cmd

C:\Projects\boinc\boinc_depends_win_vs2005\win_build>build.cmd
BOINC build environment not detected, please execute buildenv.cmd...

C:\Projects\boinc\boinc_depends_win_vs2005\win_build>


There's isn't a buildenv.cmd either in that directory or anywhere else that I've looked.

In trunk, there's a boinc.sln as shown in http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/browser/boinc/trunk/boinc/win_build; trunk is what you will want to download.

So it sounds as if you either have only got part of the source code, or you used a wrong branch.

Use svn co http://boinc.berkeley.edu/svn/trunk/boinc to download all of the source code, you really need all of it, yes, not just the client part of the tree.

In subversion you can just add the URL to the download path, no need to add svn co to the command. And in that case, the URL is http://boinc.berkeley.edu/svn/trunk/boinc

Though I could get away with downloading only 'client' and 'boinc_depends_win_vs2005'. I was wrong.

Have the .sln file now. Thanks Ageless.
