Re: [Passwordsafe-devel] Trouble building pwsafe 3.62.0.zip

[Randy M. <RJ...@fi...>]

Thank you for the feedback.  This appears to be much more promising than the .sln file in the project folder.


  1.  I installed Cmake from cmake.org
  2.  Created _build_mfc_2022_x86 folder  for VS2022 output Win32
  3.  Ran Configure and receive the output below.  Most notably it was unable to find Kernel32.lib

I don’t know what to update to fix this problem.  I suspect there will be other missing .libs once I fix this unless the fix includes an additional library folder.

I am new to Cmake.

What should I do next?

Here is the output of Configure.
