BUILDING ON WINDOWS
===================
Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 or newer is required to build the POCO C++ Libraries on
Windows platforms. Solution and project files for all versions from 2015 to 2022 are included.
Microsoft Visual Studio 2019 or newer is required to build the POCO C++ Libraries on
Windows platforms. Solution and project files for Visual Studio 2019 to 2022 are included.
64-bit (x64) builds are supported as well.
You can either build from within Visual Studio (Build->Batch Build->Select All;Rebuild)
or from the command line. To build from the command line, start the
Visual Studio Command Prompt and cd to the directory where you
have extracted the POCO C++ Libraries sources. Then, simply start the buildwin.cmd script
and pass as argument the version of visual studio (140, 150, 160, 170, etc.). You can customize
what is being built by buildwin.cmd by passing appropriate command line arguments to
it. Call buildwin.cmd without arguments to see what is available.
Developer PowerShell for Visual Studio and cd to the directory where you
have extracted the POCO C++ Libraries sources. Then, run the buildwin.ps1 script
and pass the desired options.
To disable certain components (e.g., NetSSL_OpenSSL or Data/MySQL) from the build,
edit the file named "components" and remove the respective lines.
To show available options, run:
> buildwin.ps1 -help
Example:
> buildwin.ps1 -vs 170 -action build -linkmode shared -config release -platform x64 -samples -tests
Certain libraries, like NetSSL_OpenSSL, Crypto or Data/MySQL have dependencies
to other libraries. Since the build script does not know where to find the necessary
header files and import libraries, you have to either add the header file paths to
the INCLUDE environment variable and the library path to the LIB environment variable,
or you'll have to edit the buildwin.cmd script, where these environment variables can
be set as well.

use vcpkg to install the required packages.

the shared libraries must be in the PATH environment variable.
