Compiling Sigil on Windows 7 64-bit? Errors...
I thought I would have a dabble with tweaking a few things in the Sigil source. I am using:
- Sigil 0.3.2 source code.
- cmake 2.8.3
- QT 4.7.1 libraries
- VS.Net 2010
- Windows 7 64-bit
However I am confused about whether to try to generate a 64-bit or 32-bit build of Sigil. I first tried the 32-bit build (ran cmake for VS.Net 2010) and Sigil compiles fine (built from within VS.Net), however when I try to run the built Sigil exe I get this error:
The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event log or use the command-line sxstrace.exe tool for more detail.
No idea what that error means. The application event log just has the same error information in it that I could see. So close and yet so far...
So I thought I would try building it as a 64-bit version instead, creating another bin folder using cmake for VS.Net 64-bit. However that will not compile, giving the following error:
error LNK1112: module machine type 'X86' conflicts with target machine type 'x64' D:\Sigil\bin64\src\Sigil\QtWebKitd4.lib(QtWebKitd4 .dll) Sigil
I am not a C++ developer in the day job so fumbling around in the dark here. Any gurus out there who could enlighten me as to either of these errors and what I need to do? Many thanks for your help.
