Compiling Salome 8.3.0 with Visual Studio with Windows 10

Hi

The last version that worked on my windows 10 version was 7.6.
I now tried to compile the Salome 8.3 on my PC (Windows 10 Enterprise 64-Bit).

I want to tell you what i did and where i am stuck at the moment.

And this is has not been easy .

The First thing was to get the correct Visual Studio 10 Express version.

1) I uninstalled alll the Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable package

2) Install the SDK 7.1

3) Install patch from Microsoft below onto the SDK 7.1

4)  Install the Visual C++ 2010 Express

The Kernal does compile now,  after i changed the HDF_DIR from C:\Annaconda2\Library\lib to E:\SALOME-8.3.0-WIN64\PRODUCTS\hdf5-1.8.14

But but the GUI does not yet.

Some things i found there:

LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Lib\x64\d3d9.lib

where i switch to C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.1Lib\x64\d3d9.lib which helped.

But i still get a lot of errors.

I have attached the CMakeCache.txt and the output from Visual studio express 10 is a little to big but i will post some of the relevant sections below. I relay hope someone can help me.

LG Niels
