I have dll project using cpprestsdk in visual studio 2019 (along with console application for testing purposes). On windows 7 and windows 10 original package works as expected, however I'm having hard time to compile and run on windows XP.
cpprestsdk is included in the project through NuGet, version: cpprestsdk.v141
but, its not visible for the compiler. Line #include <cpprest/http_client.h>
throws an error.
Changes i've made:
- platform toolset set to
Visual Studio 2017 - Windows XP (v141_xp)
- preprocessor definitions updated to include
CPPREST_TARGET_XP
- statically included
cpprest141_2_10.dll
- statically linked
cpprest141_2_10.lib
- console application setting
ConformanceMode
set tofalse
Now the app is compiling, but it's not working properly on windows 10 (crashes on sending request). and it's not starting on windows XP (dll entry point not found)
Any1 have any idea what's going on?
@edit: after adding to program folder missing dlls:
api-ms-win-core-crt-l1-1-0.dll
api-ms-win-core-crt-l2-1-0.dll
httpapi.dll
it came to ntdll.dll
Entry Point Not Found error screenshot
The procedure entry point WinSqmAddToStreamEx could not be located in the dynamic link library ntdll.dll
all you need to do is downgrade your Visual studio to 2013 and donwload the version of cpprest SDK like 2.9.1 which support the VS 2013 (msvc 120) as well, hope it helps
