Description

Hi All,

I tried to build Mesos on Windows with VS2019. It failed to build due to error C2668: 'os::spawn': ambiguous call to overloaded function on Windows using MSVC. It can be reproduced on latest reversion d4634f4 on master branch. Could you please take a look at this isssue? Thanks a lot!

 

Reproduce steps:

1.  git clone -c core.autocrlf=true https://github.com/apache/mesos F:\gitP\apache\mesos
2.  Open a VS 2019 x64 command prompt as admin and browse to F:\gitP\apache\mesos
3.  mkdir build_amd64 && pushd build_amd64

4.  cmake -G "Visual Studio 16 2019" -A x64 -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION=10.0.18362.0 -DENABLE_LIBEVENT=1 -DHAS_AUTHENTICATION=0 -DPATCHEXE_PATH="F:\tools\gnuwin32\bin" -T host=x64 ..

5.  set CL=/D_SILENCE_TR1_NAMESPACE_DEPRECATION_WARNING %CL%

6.  msbuild /maxcpucount:4 /p:Platform=x64 /p:Configuration=Debug Mesos.sln /t:Rebuild

 

ErrorMessage:
