I recently try to install OpenDDS-3.12 on my windows7 OS.

But, it has make trouble.

When I try to type configure on VS command prompt, it can't detect Visual C++ version!

Error code is like this:

Colud not detect Visual C++ version, try running this script from
 the Visual Studio Command Prompt.
Stopped at configure line 410.

Somebody help me my problem.

(Active perl version is 5.24.1, VS version is 2017)

I encountered the same issue while I had my visual studio correctly installed. I figured out that the configure script of openDDS is checking the output of the cl.exe command and expect a compiler version displayed in English!. Mine was displayed in french, so it didn't work. I had to install the English package to get the visual studio command prompt in English. it worked after that.

You have to run configure from the Visual Studio command prompt. When it still gives the same error post the output of

cl /?

  • When I type the message "cl /?" in VS prompt, prompt print "version 19.00.24215.1". I think it is no problem about my VS prompt. But, I don't know why OpenDDS Colud not detect Visual C++ version. – DONG-JIN LEE Nov 04 '17 at 16:22
  • It seems OpenDDS expects 19.1 as compiler output for Visual Studio 2017, have you installed all Visual Studio 2017 updates? – Johnny Willemsen Nov 05 '17 at 17:24

VS2015 / VS2017 doesn't install c++ compiler by default.

  • Modify VS VS2015 / VS2017 and select c++ compiler and install if VS VS2015 / VS2017 already install.
  • configure

Note: OpenDDS-3.12 will not build on VS 2012
