[Q] Is there support for MSVC?

[ablearthy]

clickhouse-cpp located in 3rd folder.

There's my cmake file:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.16)
project(clickhouse_bench)

set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 17)

add_subdirectory(3rd/clickhouse-cpp)

include_directories(3rd/clickhouse-cpp)


add_executable(clickhouse_bench main.cpp)
target_link_libraries(clickhouse_bench clickhouse-cpp-lib)

clickhouse-cpp-lib is compiled successfully, but clickhouse_bech isn't compiled because nmake can't find clickhouse-cpp-lib library. What's the problem?

UPD: set(CMAKE_WINDOWS_EXPORT_ALL_SYMBOLS ON) solved the problem, but now while starting the program Windows can't find clickhouse-cpp-lib.dll

UPD2: I put clickhouse-cpp-lib.dll into the folder where executable file is located. At least it starts, but now it fails on creating client

UPD3: I removed SetNonBlock before connect (line). Thanks, @victor-zou (#80, p. 4). Now selecting and inserting data works fine!

Can you send a PR with needed changes?

In my case I get "min is not a member of std" when compiling with msvc,

but when compiling with mingw64 both targets (clickhouse-cpp-lib and my-test-executable) compiles fine, but I also need to manually copy the libclickhouse-cpp-lib.dll into the executable-residing directory.

The same project structure and code works totally fine on linux, but I need it on Windows.

1. Will there be a performance degradation in using mingw instead of msvc?
2. Even I chose mingw, why do I have to copy the clickhouse-cpp-lib.dll into executable directory in order to make it executable?

I forgot to mention that I also need to add this line to clickhouse/CMakeList.txt:

target_link_libraries(clickhouse-cpp-lib ws2_32)

the same line is not needed on linux, where I can compile and run fine with all the code in repo as-is

Fixed in #130
