Pull request description:

  Fix remaining compiler warnings (MSVC).

  Before:

  ```
  $ msbuild /p:TrackFileAccess=false /p:CLToolExe=clcache.exe build_msvc\bitcoin.sln /m /v:q /nowarn:C4244;C4267;C4715 /nologo
  …\script\script.cpp(272): warning C4018: '>': signed/unsigned mismatch
  …\test\allocator_tests.cpp(147): warning C4312: 'reinterpret_cast': conversion from 'int' to 'void *' of greater size
  …\boost\test\tools\old\impl.hpp(107): warning C4805: '==': unsafe mix of type 'const Left' and type 'const Right' in operation
  …\test\crypto_tests.cpp(535): warning C4334: '<<': result of 32-bit shift implicitly converted to 64 bits (was 64-bit shift intended?)

  $
  ```

  After:

  ```
  $ msbuild /p:TrackFileAccess=false /p:CLToolExe=clcache.exe build_msvc\bitcoin.sln /m /v:q /nowarn:C4244;C4267;C4715;C4805 /nologo
  $

Building Bitcoin Core with Visual Studio

Introduction

Solution and project files to build the Bitcoin Core applications (except Qt dependent ones) with Visual Studio 2017 can be found in the build_msvc directory.

Building with Visual Studio is an alternative to the Linux based cross-compiler build.

Dependencies

A number of open source libraries are required in order to be able to build Bitcoin.

Options for installing the dependencies in a Visual Studio compatible manner are:

  • Use Microsoft's vcpkg to download the source packages and build locally. This is the recommended approach.
  • Download the source code, build each dependency, add the required include paths, link libraries and binary tools to the Visual Studio project files.
  • Use nuget packages with the understanding that any binary files have been compiled by an untrusted third party.

The external dependencies required for the Visual Studio build are (see the dependencies doc for versions):

  • Berkeley DB,
  • OpenSSL,
  • Boost,
  • libevent,
  • ZeroMQ

Additional dependencies required from the bitcoin-core github repository are:

  • SECP256K1,
  • LevelDB

Building

The instructions below use vcpkg to install the dependencies.

  • Clone vcpkg from the github repository and install as per the instructions in the main README.md.
  • Install the required packages (replace x64 with x86 as required):
    PS >.\vcpkg install --triplet x64-windows-static boost-filesystem boost-signals2 boost-test libevent openssl zeromq berkeleydb secp256k1 leveldb
  • Use Python to generate *.vcxproj from Makefile
    PS >python msvc-autogen.py
  • Build in Visual Studio.
