+--- Thread: Win I'm unable to find the XBMC for Windows.sln file (/showthread.php?tid=292784)
I'm unable to find the XBMC for Windows.sln file - aerandir92 - 2016-10-02
It's really starting to get embarrasing, but I'm just left confused.
I've forked and cloned XBMC, I've gone through all the steps here: http://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO_compile_XBMC_for_Windows_from_source_code and I've been able to build Kodi from master, install and run it.
But, I am unable to find the "XBMC for Windows.sln" file which is mentioned under Part 5 in the link I mentioned.
I did find some reference to it in run-tests.bat, but appart from that, nothing. (Trying to run run-tests.bat results in the scripts exiting at once with no feeback)
Am I just stupid, is the guide old, or is something wrong here?
Edit: Just a note, I do not have any VS2010Express folder which the guide says is where the file is located.

Building for windows changed to cmake generating the VS files.
See

Ah, cmake -G "Visual Studio 14" <KODI_SRC>/project/cmake/ was the part that I was missing (and also the .sln file is now named kodi.sln)
