Hello all, I am attempting to set up a Windows based Validator, with system details; AWS based server Windows Server 2019 Datacenter Xeon 2.3GHz quad core x64 based processor RAM: 16GB SSD: 80GB (plus another 50GB if required) I'm using Visual Studio Community 2019 16.3.5, with 'Desktop development with C++'. There is a pretty good guide below and I have gone all of the way through this including SSH, Git, Boost etc; https://github.com/ripple/rippled/blob/master/Builds/VisualStudio2017/README.md The CMakeSettings.json I copied from the example given at; https://github.com/ripple/rippled/blob/master/Builds/VisualStudio2017/CMakeSettings-example.json And of course I checked and updated the Visual Studio version to be 'Visual Studio 16 2019 Win64', as well as the Boost and OpenSSL locations. When I go to compile and build the project I get the below; Error CMake Error at Builds/CMake/RippledSanity.cmake:77 (message): Visual Studio 32-bit build is not supported. Use -G"Visual Studio 16 2019 Win64" C:\Program Files\Git\Cloned\rippled\Builds/CMake/RippledSanity.cmake 77 I've looked and checked everywhere, but I'm missing something. Any ideas people? The full build Output is; 1> CMake generation started for configuration: 'x64-Debug'. 1> Command line: "cmd.exe" /c ""C:\PROGRAM FILES (X86)\MICROSOFT VISUAL STUDIO\2019\COMMUNITY\COMMON7\IDE\COMMONEXTENSIONS\MICROSOFT\CMAKE\CMake\bin\cmake.exe" -G "Visual Studio 16 2019" -A x64 -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH="C:\Program Files\Git\Cloned\rippled\\out\\install\\x64-Debug" -DBOOST_ROOT:STRING="C:/lib/boost" -DOPENSSL_ROOT:STRING="C:/Program Files/OpenSSL-Win64" -DCMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES="Debug" "C:\Program Files\Git\Cloned\rippled" 2>&1" 1> Working directory: C:\Program Files\Git\Cloned\rippled\build\x64-Debug 1> [CMake] -- Found Git: C:/Program Files/Git/cmd/git.exe (found version "2.23.0.windows.1") 1> [CMake] -- Selecting Windows SDK version 10.0.18362.0 to target Windows 10.0.17763. 1> [CMake] -- The C compiler identification is MSVC 19.23.28106.4 1> [CMake] -- The CXX compiler identification is MSVC 19.23.28106.4 1> [CMake] -- Check for working C compiler: C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio/2019/Community/VC/Tools/MSVC/14.23.28105/bin/Hostx64/x64/cl.exe 1> [CMake] -- Check for working C compiler: C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio/2019/Community/VC/Tools/MSVC/14.23.28105/bin/Hostx64/x64/cl.exe -- works 1> [CMake] -- Detecting C compiler ABI info 1> [CMake] -- Detecting C compiler ABI info - done 1> [CMake] -- Detecting C compile features 1> [CMake] -- Detecting C compile features - done 1> [CMake] -- Check for working CXX compiler: C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio/2019/Community/VC/Tools/MSVC/14.23.28105/bin/Hostx64/x64/cl.exe 1> [CMake] -- Check for working CXX compiler: C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio/2019/Community/VC/Tools/MSVC/14.23.28105/bin/Hostx64/x64/cl.exe -- works 1> [CMake] -- Detecting CXX compiler ABI info 1> [CMake] -- Detecting CXX compiler ABI info - done 1> [CMake] -- Detecting CXX compile features 1> [CMake] -- Detecting CXX compile features - done 1> [CMake] -- Using 2 cores for ExternalProject builds. 1> [CMake] CMake Error at Builds/CMake/RippledSanity.cmake:77 (message): 1> [CMake] Visual Studio 32-bit build is not supported.

I started this topic because I am tired of waiting for someone else to furnish a hardware wallet to the Ripple/XRP community. I'm a former product developer, with hardware and software experience. This project will need skill-sets in hardware development, micro-computer coding, internet coding, testing, and manufacturing. I feel that with the right group of people we can make a world class HW Wallet that will enhance the value of XRP (besides giving everyone a convenient and safe place to store their XRP). Beyond that, we can leverage the knowledge gained, with our experience, to go on to bigger and better things with Ripple. This project should be considered a commercial project, and sales profits of the wallet will be distributed to the team. In other words, this is a serious development project for experienced people, willing and able to put in the time and effort. If you are interested, please post here, talking about your skill set and how this could proceed.
