I am trying to install the scilab toolbox "Open Pattern Recognition".
I have installed Microsoft visual studio 10.0 and windows SDKs 7 and 7.1 since Microsoft visual studio has by default only 32x compilers and I have a windows 7 Sp1 64 bit system.
When I try to execute the builder file with scilab (vers. 5.5.2, 64bit) in order to run the installation of the toolbox an error appears:
"NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\bin\amd64\cl.EXE"' : return code '0x2'"
I have already tried to run the varsall.bat file with the amd 64 option to configure the path environmental variables. When I do this I get the error message:
”The specified configuration type is missing. The tools for the configuration might not be installed”.
Please, can anyone help me ?

Intel HAXM is a prerequisite for compiling Android Studio code. When I try to install it through the SDK manager, it downloads fine, but while installing, says:
HAXM installation failed. To install HAXM follow the instructions found at: https://software.intel.com/android/articles/installation-instructions-for-intel-hardware-accelerated-execution-manager-windows
So I did the same and downloaded the files from GitHub. I followed the instructions, but when I try to build the .sln file, there is another error:
Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State
Error MSB8020 The build tools for WindowsKernelModeDriver10.0 (Platform Toolset = 'WindowsKernelModeDriver10.0') cannot be found. To build using the WindowsKernelModeDriver10.0 build tools, please install WindowsKernelModeDriver10.0 build tools. Alternatively, you may upgrade to the current Visual Studio tools by selecting the Project menu or right-click the solution, and then selecting "Retarget solution". haxm-core C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community\MSBuild\Microsoft\VC\v160\Microsoft.CppBuild.targets 390
Please guide me what I should do. I would be grateful if someone can compile the file for me....
The message
Error MSB8020 The build tools for WindowsKernelModeDriver10.0
(Platform Toolset = 'WindowsKernelModeDriver10.0') cannot be found.
means you have not installed the Windows 10 WDK. But you don't need to compile it on your own, simply install the last version haxm-windows_vVERSION.zip .
You can also try Hyper-V Platform if you get HAXM issues.
When I ran something (such as pip install scrapy) with python 3.7, I got a trouble with
error: [WinError 3] The system cannot find the path specified: 'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\\VC\\PlatformSDK\\lib'
and I found there is no PlatformSDK in my VS 14.0 at all.
(Update on 24 Jul 2018: I got another error [WinError 3] The system cannot find the path specified: 'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft SDKs\\Windows\\v8.1\\lib' when I ran pip install scrapy on another laptop, also Win 10 OS. I'm not sure whether my case is similar to this question's)
Then I got a vs_community.exe source from here and installed Web Developer Tools and Visual Studio Extensibility Tools Update 3 successfully, but still no PlatformSDK.
So how can I get this missing folder and its packages inside it?
Once I had a problem installing another Python program (QARK) that required Windows Visual C++. In fact in cmd / PowerShell I was told that a required version was missing.
So I followed what was written on THIS site, so I didn't have this problem anymore (I also rebooted, for safety):
Install using any ONE of these choices:
Microsoft Build Tools for Visual Studio
Alternative link to Microsoft Build Tools for Visual Studio.
Offline installer: vs_buildtools.exe
Select: Workloads → C++ build tools.
Install options: select only the “Windows 10 SDK” (assuming the computer is Windows 10). Optionally, if you want to use MSVC cl.exe C/C++ compiler from the command line, additionally select the C++ build tools, which takes an additional 2 GB disk space.
After that I didn't have any problems running it.
I hope I have been helpful! 🤞
I use Visual Studio 2012 and this is the only version of Visual Studio I have installed. I need to build certain C++ projects with the v90 platform toolset (of Visual Studio 2008), but I can't install Visual Studio 2008.
I understand it is possible to use the v90 platform toolset by installing Windows SDK 7.0. How exactly is it done? If I simply use the web installer of 7.0 SP1, I still don't see v90 as one of the possible platform toolsets.
It is possible, but apparently requires some maneuvering and will not support building MFC applications. The following assumes that VS2012 update 4 is installed, but neither VS2010 nor VS2008 are installed.
Download the x86 DVD of SDK 7.0 SP1 (GRMSDK_EN_DVD.iso). Mount the ISO or extract its contents, and manually install the MSI files from the following folders under the Setup folder:
WinSDK (this may fail, it's ok)
WinSDKBuild
WinSDKInterop
WinSDKTools
WinSDKWin32Tools
vc_stdx86
vc_stdamd64
winsdk_intellidocs
WinSDKIntellisenceRefAssys
WinSDKNetFxTools
Download the x86 DVD of SDK 7.1 (GRMSDK_EN_DVD.iso). Mount the ISO or extract its contents, and manually install the MSI files from the same folders listed above (except winsdk_intellidocs, which doesn't exist).
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0. Copy the following files from Common7\IDE to VC\bin:
msobj80.dll
mspdb80.dll
mspdbcore.dll
mspdbsrv.exe
Now you should be able to choose the v90 platform toolset in Visual Studio 2012 and build with it.
Explanations (and sources):
Individual MSI installation is based on the second workaround from this connect report.
The requirement for both 7.0 and 7.1 is based on this question (both VS2010 and VS2008 are required to use v90 in VS2012!). SDK 7.1 is not needed if you have VS2010.
DLL/EXE copying requirement is based on yet another question. If you do not copy them, you will see error MSB6006: "CL.exe" exited with code -1073741515.
In addition to this answer I want to add that
You can install SDK 7.0 simply by running setup, there is no problem with it.
You can install SDK 7.1 by running setup, if you remove Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributables first and fix following registry values:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v4\Client]
"Version"="4.0.30319"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v4\Full]
"Version"="4.0.30319"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v4\Client]
"Version"="4.0.30319"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v4\Full]
"Version"="4.0.30319"
You can (and probably should) restore these values to whatever they originally were after installation is complete.
Do not forget to install KB2519277 after this, it updates compilers in SDK 7.1 to SP1.
You don't need to copy any dll. MSBuild uses
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\9.0\Setup\VC#ProductDir
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\VisualStudio\9.0\Setup\VC#ProductDir
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\9.0\Setup\VS#ProductDir
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\VisualStudio\9.0\Setup\VS#ProductDir
to set up paths. It's probably wise to fix them to point to "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\\VC\\" and "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\\" as it might be useful elsewhere in build process.
Same goes for version 10.0 if you plan to use Windows7.1SDK toolset.
Use WindowsSdkVer.exe to set current SDK to 7.1 to defeat cryptic error in Microsoft.Cpp.x64.Targets(63,5) about missing unnamed required file. If the tool gives you error, then set these values manually:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SDKs\Windows#CurrentInstallFolder
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Microsoft SDKs\Windows#CurrentInstallFolder
to point to newly installed SDK. The tool needs some registry keys from Visual Studio installation to work properly, but there are many and I'm not sure which are important.
Reboot. None of the above asks you to, but without reboot I got errors when trying to build a project.
As an aside, SDK7.1 adds v100 toolset, but it won't work, saying something about Could not find WindowsSDKDir variable from the registry. This is because v100 actually requires SDK7.0A which comes with Visual Studio 2010 and is not available separately. Windows7.1SDK toolset is the one which utilises VC2010 compilers if you need them.
Microsoft.Cpp.Win32.*.props files have a lot of relevant stuff if something fails in build system.
One addition/update for VS2013 to Yodans answer:
My working setup:
VS2013 has to use VS2010 libs
Using WinSDK 7.1 (Yodans 2.) build tools (v100) in VS2013
clean install, uninstalling everything mentioned in the sdk release notes (can be downloaded at http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8279 under category Details)
Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7 (7.1) (the Windows SDK core-component files)
Application Verifier
Debugging Tools for Windows
Windows Performance Toolkit
Microsoft Help Viewer 1.0
Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable
Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Standard Edition
Additionally removed all .NET and VC++ related MS Software (not tested if necessary)
choosing Windows7.1SDK as Platform Toolset in VS2013
error MSB6006: "CL.exe" exited with code -1073741515
cl.exe uses msobj100.dll, mspdb100.dll, mspdbcore.dll and mspdbsrv.exe
Added to PATH C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE
Build works and binary is usable ( So now its tested Yodan ;-) )
My mistake:
copied files in 7. above to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\bin (Yodans 3.), believing this dir is in PATH, but it was not!
So better do as sugested by Yodan and tested by myself in 8. above
p.s. same answer is solving this problem:
Visual Studio 2013: CL.exe exited with code -1073741515
I just installed visual studio 2012 and tried running my C++ project on it.
compilation fails due to missing "SDKDDKVer.h", "windows.h", etc.
I installed the windows 8 sdk from Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) for Windows 8, but after successfully running the installer with the default components (including the windows headers), I can't find any include folder under C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v8.0 or C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v8.0A.
I ran the SDK installer twice + tried to repair and still I can't find any trace of the windows header files.
Did anyone encounter something similar?
what am I missing? my OS is win7 x64. I uninstalled VS2010 before installing VS2012.
thanks,
It's a bug caused by VS2012 using the configuration of VS2010.
You have to manually fix the include libraries to get around this (through the property manager).
The substantial modifications needed are :
adding $(WindowsSDK_IncludePath) to the include paths
adding $(WindowsSDK_LibraryPath_x86) or $(WindowsSDK_LibraryPath_x64)
to the library path depending if your building for x84 or x64.
The same problem also exists when you upgrade a VS2010 project to VS2012.
To me, manually fixing the include dirs (see step 1 in previous answer) took care of the problem.
I have this error while compiling my Visual C++ project in Visual Studio 2008 on XP. How to resolve this error :(
Error 1 fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'winsock2.h': No such file or directory c:\program files\microsoft visual studio 9.0\vc\atlmfc\include\atlbase.h 68 WOT
Your Windows SDK is not configure correctly. The easiest way to fix this is to install Windows 7 SDK. (yes, you can install it on windows xp and develop for xp)
simply go to project->project properties
linker->input
in additional dependencies add ws2_32.lib
linker ->command line add here ws2_32.lib
click start
