The Building.md file was initially made for Ubuntu 20.04, however, I should have expanded it for Windows as well.

Feature includes:

  • Updated readme.md markdown formatting
  • Building.md - Added Building for Windows
  • WinBuild.bat - Added VS2022 and echo output for stages

Build Failures

Currently, out-the-gate on Win10 when branched off of main:

  • MSBuild v17: 1328 Warning(s) and 77 Error(s)
  • MSBuild v15: ...

The most reoccurring error that flashes is the following, as well as A LOT of other "downgrade" issues.

 NU1102: Unable to find package Microsoft.VisualStudio.CodingConventions with version (>= 1.1.20230104.5)
  - Found 1 version(s) in dotnet-tools [ Nearest version: 1.1.20180503.2 ]

Looking into the other open PRs and any undocumented dependencies.

Does this error happen on the PR where Microsoft.VisualStudio.CodingConventions has been removed also? #120

And also which msbuild do you use?
https://github.com/mono/msbuild (old mono fork from original msbuild) or https://github.com/dotnet/msbuild

You should also update the GitHub Actions manifest in this PR if possible, https://github.com/dotdevelop/dotdevelop/blob/main/.github/workflows/monodevelop.yml

@MakiWolf, good call, that's gonna be my next move. Getting this to build on Windows is definitely going to take a while to get moving. I really appreciate the help, folks :)

Thanks, @lextm, for the reminder. As soon as I get something to build, that will be updated

This line links to the windows nuget packages

dotdevelop/main/Directory.Build.props

Line 10 in ce0af42

<ReferencesVSEditor Condition=" '$(OS)' == 'Windows_NT' ">$(RootDirectory)\msbuild\ReferencesVSEditor.Windows.props</ReferencesVSEditor>

Maybe here we should make a replace which builds the nuget packages from vs editor api from source directly like we do on Linux.
