Cannot build using Windows Visual Studio 2022 - sentry-cli 0.7.15

[sseyod]

Description

Cannot build using Windows Visual Studio 2022.

When does the problem happen

• [ x] During build
• During run-time
• When capturing a hard crash

Environment

• OS: Windows 11 Home 64-bit
• Compiler: MSVC 2022
• CMake version and config: 3.31.1

Steps To Reproduce

Get latest zip of sentry-cli (0.7.15)
Unzip

From Visual Studio Power Shell, in the unzipped folder as follows:

cmake -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF -DSENTRY_BACKEND=breakpad -DSENTRY_BUILD_RUNTIMESTATIC=ON -DCMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM=x64 -B build

The command fails, as cmake is unable to find cmake/utils.cmake

If I comment-out all of the following lines in CMakeLIsts.txt, the cmake command works:

include(cmake/utils.cmake)
if (WIN32 AND SENTRY_BUILD_SHARED_LIBS)
    sentry_add_version_resource(sentry "Client Library")
endif()

Hi, it is not clear what went wrong here, but this path is well-tested. You're mentioning sentry-cli at multiple points. While having sentry-cli around when developing native applications that you want to monitor with Sentry is undoubtedly helpful, it is entirely unrelated to building the Native SDK (which this repository hosts). You may have mixed up your downloads.

I have created a test repository that only contains a workflow to build Native SDK 0.7.15 from our provided release zip with the parameters you provided: https://github.com/supervacuus/native-build-test/actions/runs/12177788941. As you can see, the build runs end to end, and you can even download the install artifacts.

This issue has gone three weeks without activity. In another week, I will close it.

But! If you comment or otherwise update it, I will reset the clock, and if you remove the label Waiting for: Community, I will leave it alone ... forever!
