How you compile it on windows?
I always got an error in mingw64: configure: error: QtCore headers missing.

Hi  BoozyTalking

I have not used Windows for a few yrs and when I compile then i do everything on Linux so I cannot test this directly for you but try to Install some packages

Maybe this will work i dont know try it maybe
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-qt5-base  then pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-qt5-tools then - pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-db  then pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-boost
then pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-libevent then
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-openssl

and to configure something like that
./configure --with-incompatible-bdb --with-gui=qt5 --disable-tests --disable-bench

Im not sure if this will work on Windows I m really out from using windows for long time.
When Im was trying to install Windows few months ago it makes me nauseous as soon as I see what kind of questions this system asks during installation process.
If I compile for Windows then Im doing cross compilation on Linux.
I think Worgon12 runs RXB on Windows successfully so maybe he can help you better with Windows setup.
Wargon12 could you help for BoozyTalking ? ] Please help him. I m not to good with windows

I have all these packages installed but it still not work. I think configure script is inccorect for mingw64.

The depends folder is completely empty and lacks the files needed for the build (the .mk files and the original Bitcoin Makefile are missing). The git checkout command didn't work because those files aren't even present in the repository's history. you need to "inject" the missing build files by downloading them from the official Bitcoin Core repository (version 0.20, the same one RXB is based on) in the build-windows-yml.
I forked your repo and will try to compile it myself. it will hard but i will try

How you compile it on windows?
I always got an error in mingw64: configure: error: QtCore headers missing.

This happens because you're compiling an older version of Qt (5.9. using a very recent compiler. Newer compiler versions are stricter and require libraries to be explicitly included.

Try to compile only the client and the node do not compile the qt.

Hello to labe1971

Thank you for looking into this and for the fork.
You are right about the depends folder.
I will try to fix this properley
For now Im think so the easiest solution to compile RXB on  Windows is to compile without GUI. and  --with-incompatible-bdb
This should give  rxbd.exe and rxb-cli.exe and its enough to run a full node.
I am working on releasing proper Windows binaries compiled via cross compilation on Linux.
Now I work nights so I have less time to work on RXB but I will
Will push them ASAP.
Thank you for your help it's really great.
Thank you for forking that repo it is really appreciated. Super .

Compiled for win without qt, is in artifact of the fork of RXB in my repo, https://github.com/labe971/rxb-core/actions/runs/25263873136 take a look on artifact there are the files for win compiled. See also  here for reference this will resolve your problem of compilation (use in your RXB) https://github.com/labe971/rxb-core/blob/main/.github/workflows/build-windows.yml
Happy to help

Hi labe1971
This is amazing thank you so much. SUPER !
I will check that and the workflow file tomorrow and integrate it into to main repo.
Thank You Thank You !!
I need to get some sleep its 4am for me now but I will definitely look on that all in the morning as soon as I wake up in a few hours

I would like to share that I have been struggling with severe depression for a very long time and I will soon be undergoing intensive treatment.

Because of this I will not be able to update the project for some time. I would like to integrate the recent contributions from labe1971 into the repository but currently I do not feel strong enough to do anything. If I feel better before my treatment begins I will integrate contributions from labe1971

For now im only performed a push with commit 2864a30.

Network and build update.

The depends/Makefile and bdb packages definition have been fixed.
Windows cross-compilation with wallet support now should works correctly.
I have added an annex to the Whitepaper informing about the consensus changes that are in effect after the removal of LWAM.
CHANGELOG.md file has been updated same as all instruction files
Onion seed nodes have been removed from chainparams to support stable clearnet growth.
The only hardcoded seed is now the public clearnet bridge at 135.181.255.219:8327.
Previously announced onion nodes remain operational and can still be added manually via addnode in rxb.conf.
They will be maintained for approximately six months after that time these operational onion seed nodes will be automatically disconnected

Source: https://github.com/Heiwabitnull/rxb-core

I have also removed the root prefix from the bootstrap file to make it easier to use.
Please remember to download and use bootstrap file for RXB sync[/color]      

https://github.com/Heiwabitnull/rxb-core/releases/tag/v0.3.0-foxbat

Now RXB network needs a large number of new nodes to be installed and more miners to provide computing power currently at a level of approximately 60 Th/s.
Please if you like it download the latest bootstrap file it works.
But do extra check if it's working properly and decide for yourself whether to disconnect the network and declare it dead or if you prefer to continue.
If you prefer to continue you'll have to create nodes on some more vpss and add them to files.
I'm tired of seeing in last 7 days constant attacks and constant reindexing attempts.
Maybe those who believed in this project didn't like it either.
####
Imprtant
My nodes will automatically shut down within six months.
######
Please if you like it fire up any miners you have but in a way that does not harm the network.
Please if you like it then mine and use these coins.
Please help each other and continue to develop the project. If its possible then do not change the monetary policy or the PoW consensus to PoS.
Im sure so this project won't survive without you and you are all wonderful people and it is super that I could write with you on this forum.

I just uploaded the new correct bootstrap here: https://github.com/Heiwabitnull/rxb-core/releases/tag/v0.3.0-foxbat.
This bootsrap is ok  
It's not much but it's all I can do. Most importantly the current bootstrap helps.
You are wonderful! Have a great day
