The current description of how to build mongodb using Visual Studio seems to be outdated. In particular the sections on building from the IDE says to use the "db_10.sln" file, but this file is no longer maintained and does not work. I am not completely sure what should go in there now, Tad had mentioned that the files db/mongod.sln, db/mongod_v8.sln, dbtests/test.sln, dbtests/test_v8.sln, shell/mongo.sln, and shell/mongo_v8.sln are all valid build solution files now. http://www.mongodb.org/about/tutorial/build-mongodb-with-visual-studio-2010/ |
