Windows Use about jack_server HOT 6 CLOSED

I will try to compile jack myself. I had JACK 1.9.22 installed and noticed that jackserver.lib is not in the lib folder...

from jack_server.

I think, I made it work somehow a year ago, at the time I published the issue you mentioned. Did you try doing what @falkTX suggested here: jackaudio/jack2#856 (comment)?

Previously, jackserver library was included in official package. Did something changed?

If it didn’t, we could probably find a way to make jack_server work without any hacks on windows consistently after installing JACK

No, sorry, I was mistaken. Anyhow, I managed to fix the problem (in an ugly way by adding my JACK2 install path - C:\Program Files\JACK2) to the PATH environment variable.

Hey, it looks like I have figured how to use winreg to find the JACK install folder. I will have to look into the source code a little deeper to understand how to use this with Windows :)

>>> import winreg
>>> 
>>> handle = winreg.OpenKey(winreg.HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,
...     r"Software\JACK")
>>>
>>> num_values = winreg.QueryInfoKey(handle)[1]
>>> for i in range(num_values):
...     print(winreg.EnumValue(handle, i))
... 
('ServerExecutable', 'C:\\Program Files\\JACK2\\jackd.exe', 1)
('InstallPath', 'C:\\Program Files\\JACK2', 1)
('Version', 'v1.9.22', 1)
