Building FS VS 2008 / For Windows Server
I started trying FS December last year and now I am in stage to deploy it in live environment with my projects. When I built it last year, I remember I had issues getting the configuration correct and ceptral issues. I do not have good administrative / config file skills. I would like to compile and deploy the new version to take advantage of bug fixes and new features such as google voice integration. My questions: 1. When I go to properties of the solution, I see certain items (such as 16Hz, json, etc) unchecked under "Configuration properties -- debug". Should I check all items to get a complete build? If I check everything I get build errors in JSON module. 2. What is purpose of "_Build system", "_Config" and "_Downloads" folders? Which config files are used to direct the solution to include certain things and exclude others? 3. When I did first install, I used windows setup to install FS. Should I overwrite the files that come out of solution building process on top of current folder? Is it possible to run multiple instances of FS on same computer so that I can check transition works? Thank you for any help or advice.
There have been tons of improvements to both the source and build since you last updated. 1. The default solution is configured with everything needed for a basic installation. If you want VS to copy files needed for 16khz or other sounds you can elect to do so (those files can also be copied manually too). Projects that are not built standard(besides sounds) may require additional setup, external library support or other significant setup. 2. _build and _config are simply just for solution reference and allow VS to include them in solution searches for example. _download is used for auto downloading of listed dependencies. 3. You will need to carefully compare the files from your existing setup and merge the things you require into the current setup. Running multiple instances(simultaneously) is possible but requires changing the setup to listen on different ports. You can of course have multiple builds and test them individually. Source control has also changed from SVN to Git since you started. -- View this message in context: http://freeswitch-users.2379917.n2.nabble.com/Building-FS-VS-2008-For-Window...
