compiling nextpvr addon for win64
#1
Im in the process of trying to make some updates to this addon to submit for my own pull request on git, but im having issues just getting the addon compiled as-is. I'm able to clone and cmake build everything successfully and then build the solution but the resulting dll is triggering an error in kodi for not a valid win32 application. Ive tried the tools/windows bat file edit for visual studio win64 and ive also tried making sure i was setup for an x64 configuration in visual studio.

Im new to trying to build addons and im an experienced dev so i have a good idea what im doing, but obviously theres something im missing. Im currently now following the kodi build guides to just see if i can get kodi itself built and running on x64 win10 as im hoping i just dont have a proper dev environment setup for tha ddon to build into x64.

Thanks

you choose x64 in the cmake step, cmake -G "Visual Studio nn Win64"

i had seen a reference to that in a random post i found while researching the issue but it was about changing a file to use Win64. It didnt occurr to me to do that during the actual cmake step. I did so and voila no more win32 error, so super thanks to you! Now im just getting an incompatible API version error which is hopefully an easy fix once i find out where to set that.

Thanks again
