After I follow the Installing Tools (Windows) guides,I install vs2017 ,but I don’t install [Rhino 6 for Windows] and rh60sdk_[build_number].msi .and I follow Supported C++ Compilers guide, I rebuilt opennurbs_public program,and there are 4Errors,

"E0040 excepeted an identifieer”                                      freetype263         
“initializer is not a constant”                                       freetype263 
“Error C2065 ‘AF_SCRIPT_CYRL’: undeclared identifier.”                freetype263
"cannot open file 'C:/opennubrs/bin/x64/Debug/freetype263.lib' "

and how can I compile this program successfully?

Hi @caojunqi,

I just download, unzipped and successfully build the latest openNURBS (opennurbs_6.1.18014.22401.zip), both Debug and Release with Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2017 (Version 15.7.2).

It sounds like you may not have enough C++ installed. You may want to re-run the Visual Studio installer and make sure the required C++ components are installed. On Windows 10, click Cortana and type “Visual Studio Installer”.

Do you install the Rhino C/C++ SDK?

No, the Rhino C/C++ SDK is only for building C++ plug-ins for Rhino. And, the openNURBS headers cannot be used with the openNURBS toolkit.
