[Opensim-dev] .NET 4 Teething Problems

[Zadark Portal]

Further experimentation.

Using Windows 8.1 x64. Already installed Visual Studio 2012 Profressional.

 git clone opensimulator.org/git/opensim , with minimal standalone
configuration, runprebuild.bat then compile.bat

Result
    77 Warning(s)
    0 Error(s)

Time Elapsed 00:00:25.87

The simulator started (including the initial region name etc inputs) with
no issues. Opened a viewer and created a simple prim with script, again the
simulator restarted with no issue.

This raises the hypothesis that the Visual Studio installation is changing
the build environment.

Are there any opensim configuration parameters not included with a basic
standalone that maybe influencing these test results?

Continuing to investigate.
