abscissa / appveyor-d Goto Github PK

BTW I wanted to make the install script that I once put on the wiki official for a long time (see dlang/installer#275), but I never managed to get to it.
So thanks a lot for this giant push and leap forward!

So what do you think about making it possible for people to just use the sth. like this in their AppVeyor config?

build_script: (New-Object Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://dlang.org/install.psi') | iex

IIRC these were the things that I still had to do back then:

• Support Visual Studio 2017 (check the referenced PR)
• Auto-load the vcvarsall.bat in the install script
• Rename the variables to match with the ones used by the Posix install script
• Add binaries to the environment path (already done in dlang/installer#275)

Getting a link failure only on 2.068.2 (newer and older works fine though):

dub test --arch=%Darch% --compiler=%DC%
No source files found in configuration 'library'. Falling back to "dub -b unittest".
Performing "unittest" build using dmd for x86_64.
appveyor-d ~master: building configuration "application"...
Linking...
LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'shell32.lib'
--- errorlevel 1104
dmd failed with exit code 1104.

I've set this one to allow failure for now, but a resolution is needed. Need help from someone more familiar with this matter.

Check dlang/installer#301 for details.

latest:

"http://dlang.github.io/dub/LATEST"
"http://code.dlang.org/download/LATEST" (<- probably will get retired at some point)

binaries:

"https://github.com/dlang/dub/releases/download/v$ver/dub-$ver-windows-x86.zip"
 "http://code.dlang.org/files/dub-$ver-windows-x86.zip" (<- might get retired)

FYI there's currently no CI for the dub binaries though using LATEST might be problematic for now
That might change soon with dlang/dub#1471 or with another approach though.
