#Supported Visual Studio versions |
|
|
|
Currently supported versions are Visual Studio 2013 (our primary focus) and 2010. |
|
|
|
#Building |
|
We are using [NuGet](http://www.nuget.org) to pull zlib and openssl dependencies. |
|
If you don't have Visual Studio NuGet plugin installed, you'll need to |
|
download nuget.exe from the web and manually restore the NuGet packages. |
|
|
|
``` |
|
> REM Run from this directory. |
|
> REM No need to do this if you have NuGet visual studio extension. |
|
> nuget restore |
|
``` |
|
|
|
After that, you can build the solution using one of these options: |
|
1. open `grpc.sln` with Visual Studio and hit "Build". |
|
2. build from commandline using `msbuild grpc.sln /p:Configuration=Debug` |
|
|
|
#Testing |
|
|
|
Use `run_tests.py`, that also supports Windows (with a bit limited experience). |
|
``` |
|
> REM Run from repository root. |
|
> python tools\run_tests\run_tests.py -l c |
|
``` |
|
|
|
Also, you can `make.bat` directly to build and run gRPC tests. |
|
``` |
|
> REM Run from this directory. |
|
> make.bat alarm_test |
|
``` |
|

# Building protoc plugins |
|
For generating service stub code, gRPC relies on plugins for `protoc` (the protocol buffer compiler). The solution `grpc_protoc_plugins.sln` allows you to build |
|
Windows .exe binaries of gRPC protoc plugins. |
|
|
|
1. Open solution `third_party\protobuf\vsprojects\protobuf.sln` |
|
2. Accept the conversion to newer Visual Studio version and ignore errors about gtest. |
|
3. Build libprotoc in Release mode. |
|
4. Open solution `vsprojects\grpc_protoc_plugins.sln` and build it in Release mode. As a result, you should obtain a set of gRPC protoc plugin binaries (`grpc_cpp_plugin.exe`, `grpc_csharp_plugin.exe`, ...)
