In MSVC, has anyone succeeded in downloading the protocol buffer code, and the extra linked project ABSL code, and gotten it to compile with the sample API projects?? Not me so far.
?
The TWS-API revision # of PB in the supplied files is 5029003, and it needs the .h files from the protocolbuf project to compile.
The closest I can find for PB source version is the 29.x branch.? Though this build is actually 5029005 - so I adjusted the # to match.
?
Next is the linked ABSL (abseil-cpp) project and the branch with LTS 2024-07-22 was likely the current one to match PB 29 at the time, and avoids a bunch of function / link errors that the master and other branches cause.
?
Next adjust the VC source to the PB demanded C++ v17 code.
?
This combination gets me almost compiled, but with one error I cannot solve:? error C2857: '#include' statement specified with the /Ycstdafx.h command-line option was not found in the source file.? All the included files are there, so something is still a miss.?? The google side is built without a global include file, but the VC project uses the stdafx.h.??? I can't get anything to agree here.
?
Stumped.
