I am trying to compile Nektar++ on a windows 10 machine, Does anyone have recent (positive) experience with this? I have tried several times with different software versions but to no effect. After a long process it ends up giveing some kind of visual studio project related error. The documentation that describes the process seems to be outdated as it keeps referring to visual studio 15. I have tried this version as well as visual studio 19, and several versions of cmake and the boost libraries without success. Some help would be much appreciated!


*** I have been able to compile the code with vs 2019, cmake 3.16 and boost libraries 1.72 and great help from J. Cohen from Imperial College. Turns out there is an issue with the 5.0.0 version that is downloadable from the web page but has been already solved in the master branch on gitlab, so use that version for building on windows 10. You need also have extra care with setting up the correct path variables so that all relevant libraries can be readily allocated (you basically need to add to the path all directories within the nektar folder that contain .exe, .dll. and folders /lib
