Trouble building mir-cpuid on Windows 7 about mir-cpuid HOT 10 CLOSED

@jmh530 What compiler version?

from mir-cpuid.

I was using ldc 1.2.0. I was originally having an issue because mine was too old to recognize Visual Studio 2017 Community. While the newer version recognized it, it still had issues.

I could check my dmd version later if that matters. I think it was the latest (2.074.1), but not entirely sure.

I have not windows. Please report new issues too

Do you mean you have the same issue or you have another issue with the same compiler?

TLDR: You might consider adding to the readme that Windows users with Visual Studio 2017 will need ldc2-1.3.0 to run the mir-cpuid command. This may also need to get added to the mir-cpuid project readme.md.

I just playing around with it again and noticed that it says "Using Visual C++: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\VC". When I look at my Program Files (x86) folder, I see Visual Studio 2017, 9, 11, 12, and 14. So it seems to be taking 12, but the latest.

I did some googling and found it was related to the following issue:
ldc-developers/ldc#2134

I went into the file they mention and noticed that it was only referring to Visual Studio 12. So I downloaded ldc2-1.3.0-beta2-win64-msvc, changed the environment path, and ran the code again and it worked just fine.

@jmh530 What is tha status if this issue, should it be still open?

(may be it is already resolved?)

@9il I believe it is resolved and will close. I have compiled it successfully on Windows 7 using LDC 1.10.0 and mir-cpuid-0.5.3.
