Window Build

[QuincyAdams24]

not sure what I did wrong.

1. Downloaded mapbox/windows-builds
2. installed Python 64 bit
3. installed git 64 bit
4. installed VS2015
5. updated settings.bat to point to 64 bit python and git.
6. ran settings.bat "FASTBUILD=0" "BOOST_VERSION=63"
7. ran scripts\build.bat

build_mapnik.bat fails

     ..\..\src\geometry\closest_point.cpp(81): error C2440: 'initializing': cannot convert from 'initializer list'
   to 'mapnik::geometry::result_type'

closest_point.cpp
return result_type { pt_.x, pt_.y, 0.0 };

This looks to me that you are pulling Mapnik master, which requires C++14 features which likely don't work with visual studio 2015. I would recommend sticking with Mapnik 3.0.x rather than master (which is future v3.1.x)

I tried
6. ran settings.bat "FASTBUILD=0" "BOOST_VERSION=63" "MAPNIKBRANCH=v3.0.x"
7. ran scripts\build.bat

now I get
fatal error C1083: Cannot open source file: '....\test\visual\parse_map_sizes.cpp': No such file or dire
ctory [D:\CodeDepot\Mk_Mapnik\windows-builds\packages\mapnik-v3.0.x\mapnik-gyp\build\test_visual_run.vcxproj]

I pulled master and copied over the missing files to v3.0.x.
ran it again
now I get

2. installed Python 64 bit

isn't Python 32bit necessary?
