Windows Installation

Is it possible to compile and generate a libdiscon.dll file for an IEA15MW wind turbine using VsStdio on a Windows operating system?

You can just use cmake/ make, this can be done to make a 32 bit or 64 bit dll.

I have no experience with Visual Studio on Windows, but here are some examples you might be able to follow: https://github.com/OpenFAST/openfast/tree/main/vs-build

Hello Daniel, I have also issues compiling the dll on Windows. I tried to follow the instructions here: https://rosco.readthedocs.io/en/latest/source/install.html

But at my company we cannot use Anaconda, and a lot of it depends on Anaconda since the latest licence updates.

Is there any alternative if you are not able to use Anaconda? Might be interesting also for other users. Thanks a lot.

ROSCO can also be fully installed in a pip virtual environment using pip install rosco.
