  • Windows CVS snapshots?

    From Mcsteve@VERT to All on Sun Dec 7 20:43:26 2014
    Hey all,

    What is required to update a Win32 Synchronet installation to latest CVS? Are there prebuilt snapshots somewhere? If I have to compile it myself, can I do it with the current version of Visual Studio?

    I swear I've done this before, but it was a good few years ago and I remember nothing.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    You don't have to, but you could.

    Alright, I think I'm getting it. Executables in sbbs_dev.zip, and most everything else in sbbs_run.zip.

    I guess I make sure my backups are up to date, extract everything except the cnf/cfg files over the top of my installation, and manually merge in any updates to the INI files and other customized files, eh?

    Thanks for getting back to me.
