atlstr.h Not Found with VS2015 error

[gauthamn28]

I saw that you had added support for Node.js v0.12.x. I currently have node.js version - v0.12.4 and node-gyp - 2.0.2 . I have Visual Studio 2015.

I am getting the following error when installing the module -

..\src\detection_win.cpp(5): fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'atlstr.h': No such file or directory [C:\Users\gauthamn\node_modules\usb-detection\build\detection.vcxproj]

From some googling, atlstr.h is part of the ATL library which gets included with some VS installs. Which version of VS exactly do you have?

In my VS installs I can find it in this place:

• C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\VC\atlmfc\include\atlstr.h

Here are some links that helped me investigate your issue:

Thanks for the help. The problem was that I had the express version but I
needed the Complete version for it to work.
