Orbiter compile error *SOLVED*

[johnnymanly]

I'm trying to compile Orbiter-latest on Windows 10 using vs2022.
I'm getting the error "can't find the include file P_.h"
According to Windows search P_.h doesn't exist on my computer.
Does anyone know what provides it?

How do you compile the project? I don't have this file either, it is included from xephem/moon.c which should not be compiled when using cmake

This include file is part of xephem.
That's all i found.

I was trying to create a new project using existing code which I now realize is incorrect.
Configuring it properly it stops at the warning:

Severity    Code    Description    Project    File    Line    Suppression State
Warning        mesh contains no groups.    C:\Orbiter\orbiter-latest\out\build\windows-x86-release\orbiter-latest    C:\Orbiter\orbiter-latest\out\build\windows-x86-release\EXEC    1

Steps taken:
Extract Orbiter-latest, right click and open with vs2022, set to x86, configure, build all.

Compiled 2024-rc2 instead of Orbiter-latest and it built fine.
