Hi,I want to build GammaRay from source on windows10 with Microsoft Visual Studio;
when execute nmake command I get the error below:

@sz_y It would help if you would translate Chinese into English.

@sz_y You should try with latest Qt 5.12.x release.
Check whether you can disable tests as it looks like the error comes from there.
Also, you use Qt for VS2017 but VS2015. Shouldn't be an issue as compiler are now compatible.

@jsulm Thank you!

@jsulm my QT is Qt5.12.3,VS is 2015
Because of the error "Qt5Cored.lib(Qt5Cored.dll) : fatal error LNK1112: module machine type 'x64' conflicts with target machine type 'X86'",I set the qt path with"Qt\Qt5.12.3\5.12.3\msvc2017"

jsulm

@sz_y Instead of such workarounds you should use proper compiler with proper Qt. Means: if you want to build for x86_64 then use x86_64 compiler and x86_64 Qt.

@jsulm said in GammaRay build Error on windows10 with Microsoft Visual Studio:

I don't want build x86_x64,
my build environment is as follow:
windows10
computer system type :64 bit os,based on x64 processor
VS2015
qt-opensource-windows-x86-5.12.3
CMAKE:cmake-3.10.1-win64-x64

What should I do?

GammaRay has a million dependencies which are hard to set up manually, the easiest way to build it is using craft.

You can check out the appveyor.yml file in the folder to see what commands the developers are running to build the program in their Windows CI
