SideServer for Windows

Building

In order to compile SideServer on VS 2019/2022 there a few things required. Install the installer plugin that match your VS version from here.

1. clone the repository recursively and checkout the error_handling branch
2. install and bootstrap VCPKG
3. In the Dependencies\libimobiledevice-vs folder, run the ./get-source script to download the source repos
4. In the project imobiledevice:
   • Open the project properties page
   • Navigate to Configuration Properties > vcpkg
   • Turn on Use Vcpkg Manifest
5. In AltServer and AltSign, change the toolset to v143 (if using VS2022)

The code should now compile, but only in x86 for now.

To Do

• Fix x64 build??
• Add pairing file support (commented out, some module error)
• Rebrand AltServer to SideServer
• Add beta build install option
