Build your FWH app using hbmk2.exe and MSVC 32&64

[carlos vargas]

Antonio, para salir de dudas de una vez por todas....

Que version de ssl descargar tanto para bcc como para msvc? en sus versiones 32 y 64 bits..

[Antonio Linares]

Carlos,

Para 32 bits prueba con:
https://slproweb.com/download/Win32OpenSSL-3_0_2.exe

Para 64 bits prueba con:
https://slproweb.com/download/Win64OpenSSL-1_1_1n.exe

En la página de descargas tambien hay unas versiones "light" que podríamos probar.

Yo los tengo descargados desde hace tiempo y no recuerdo si los descargué desde ahi

[Enrico Maria Giordano]

This is the right one for 64 bit:

https://slproweb.com/download/Win64OpenSSL_Light-3_0_2.exe

And this for 32 bit:

https://slproweb.com/download/Win32OpenSSL_Light-3_0_2.exe

Hi Antonio,

Can you please lead me to compile after installing Win32OpenSSL-3_0_2.exe?

Thanks.

Dear Hakan,

We already explained it here:
viewtopic.php?p=249800&sid=cf5b3f87e1f151243044e5d25dfd8ca0#p249800

Just run go32.bat to get Harbour 32 bits, or run go64.bat to get Harbour 64 bits

Hi Antonio,

I have found fwh64 2307 from my backups and started again from begining. I am trying to compile your example. It gives some errors. Can you please help me.

Thanks.

Thank you Antonio,
It worked just fine.

[Rick Lipkin]

To All

I have used Borland for many years and I did try MSVC for a short while but I did not see any advantage to use MVSC vs Borland ?? .. I do not use Visual Studio.

Rick Lipkin

[Enrico Maria Giordano]

One of the advantages of MSVC is the smaller executables sizes. Another one is the higher C compile speed if -MP switch is used (something similar exists for BCC64 and BCC32 CLANG, but not for BCC32).

[Antonio Linares]

MSVC provides a great low level debugger and many useful tools

IMO the best one, no doubt about it

[Enrico Maria Giordano]

Can the low level debugger be used without Visual Studio? If yes, how?

[Antonio Linares]

Dear Enrico,

> Can the low level debugger be used without Visual Studio? If yes, how?

You need to install the complete Visual Studio package as you run the low level debugger from the IDE

Its a great low level debugger where you can see the Harbour virtual machine running, step by step. Step through the C code, profile the C code execution to detect bottlenecks and more

[Enrico Maria Giordano]

Ok, so the low level debugger should not listed as an advantage of MSVC.
