How to use Botan Amalgamation files and VS2008

问题

• Clean install of Windows XP SP3
• Install Python 2.7.2
• Extract Botan 1.10.1 to the desktop
• Run configure.py --cc=msvc --disable-shared --gen-amalgamation
• Copy botan_all.h and botan_all.cpp to my dev workstation
• Make a new project Win32 console project in VS2008

This gives me 102 errors ... anyone using this library?

#include "botan_all.h"
int main(int argc, char *argv[])  
{
    return 0;
}

回答1:

The problem is your project is a windows application and includes windows.h, windows.h includes macros for min and max.

The solution is to define #define NOMINMAX You can do through the project's property pages > C/C++ > Preprocessor > Preprocessor definitions

Also, add #define BOTAN_DLL in botan_all.h to avoid error at least in version 1.10.1
