#32 Windows Installation Broken

Aberto
8 anos atrás foi aberto por claudio · 0 comentários

When trying to install socket.io on windows, it expects that VS is installed, and fails to compile when it does not. It is difficult to solve this problem, so I suggest to just update the windows installation instructions to make sure that people understand the dependencies required.

As far as I understood, one needs to have VS installed, so that node-gyp can build the dependencies of socket.io properly. See https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp/blob/master/README.md#installation

I cannot test whether this solution will fix the installation for now. I need a fresh virtual machine to test that. I will be using (and encouraging the use of) atompm in linux for now.
