smtps_attachment.cpp wont work about mailio

[karastojko]

Did you fetch mailio from Vcpkg or from Github?

[boomer11111111]

I installed mailio with vcpkg, in the instructions it said it was an option.

[karastojko]

It is the option. I recall there was a problem on Windows with linking, it was fixed by exporting the needed types, content_type was one of them.
So, your version is 0.21.0 which is the latest on Vcpkg?

[boomer11111111]

Not gonna lie, i have to find out how to see vcpkg version. Also i m not sure what "it was fixed by exporting the needed types" means. Is it something that i have to do? . (I am extremely grateful for the responses btw)

[karastojko]

I mean mailio 0.21.0, not Vcpkg.
By exporting I mean: does your version of mime.hpp has the MAILIO_EXPORT like here ? It's required on Windows, Unix systems do not need it.

[boomer11111111]

I checked mailio version and it says "0.20.0#1", so there is that. Also in my mime.hpp i see MAILIO_EXPORT class like in your link, but i dont see MAILIO_EXPORT struct in it. (I uninstalled and reinstalled mailio today, how do i get 0.21.0 version? I just did ./vcpkg upgrade mailio:x64-windows and i still says "0.20.0#1")

[karastojko]

I have just installed mailio by Vcpkg from scratch and I have the version 0.21.0 (can be seen within the file version.hpp). You are getting the version 0.20.0?

[boomer11111111]

Yes, in my version.hpp it says:

#define MAILIO_VERSION_MAJOR 0
#define MAILIO_VERSION_MINOR 20
#define MAILIO_VERSION_PATCH 0

And i reinstalled today and did update package (if i did it right), but still got 0.20.0#1 (not sure what that #1 is but its there).

[karastojko]

I did with Vcpkg on both Windows and Linux, the version 0.21.0 is taken. I have no explanation what is going on your setup. Maybe you could try to pull from Github and compile with Cmake.

[boomer11111111]

I have only heard of Cmake, not sure what it is or does. Any other way to install, manually maybe? (My platform toolset is "vsisual studio 2019 (v142)", could that be a problem?)

[boomer11111111]

OK OK FIXED IT. I did a git pull and re-run the bootstrap-vcpkg.bat file, but this time (magically) mailio has the right version. Nothing was wrong with the library. Thanks a lot for the help (like im actually grateful).

[karastojko]

Good to hear. If the linker error disappears now, then I guess the issue can be closed.

[boomer11111111]

Yes yes close it.
