I'm using Visual Studio 2013, and i need to do a example project with msnodesql, I installed node-gyp globally, then i tried to configure the node-gyp using node-gyp configure command, it executed successfully, but when i tried to build the node-gyp using node-gyp build. It shows me so many errors.

I also updated MSVSVersion.py as suggested in this link but no use.

I get several errors like error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int OdbcOperation.h.

error C2819: type 'mssql::OdbcOperation' does not have an overloaded member 'operator -> OdbcOperation.cpp'

Could any one help me with this? Thanks.

If you look at the node-gyp GitHub page the installation details list the prerequisites for installing on windows.

Basically you need either VS2010 or 2012 installed (depending on OS) and if on Windows 7 the Windows 7 sdk.

  • I successfully compiled [node-odbc](http://github.com/wankdanker/node-odbc) with VS 2013 on Windows 8.1 64bit, but I had to do some manual changes between `configure` and `build`: Open *.sln and upgrade to VS12, save, manually checkout/install dependencies (since `npm install` will fail because it will auto-run gyp, which fails because it requires VS10), build, copy `*.node` to folder where Node.js can find it. No Windows SDK, unless it comes with VS12?! Maybe that helps. Still seeking for a way to let gyp generate a VS12 solution... – CodeManX Nov 11 '14 at 03:46
