    Updates to appveyor config:

    • Update build image from Visual Studio 2017 to Visual Studio 2019.
    • Updated Qt static library from Qt5.9.7 to Qt5.9.8.
    • Added commands to update vcpkg port files (this does not update already installed packages).
    • Updated vcpkg package list as per #17309.
    • Removed commands setting common project file options. Now done via common.init.vcxproj include.
    • Changed msbuild verbosity from normal to quiet. Normal writes a LOT of logs and impacts appveyor job duration.

    Updates to msvc project configs:

    • Updated platform toolset from v141 to v142.
    • Updated Qt static library from Qt5.9.7 to Qt5.9.8.
    • Added ignore for linker warning building bitcoin-qt program.
    • Added missing util/str.cpp class file to test_bitcoin project file.

    In order for an existing appveyor job based on the new config to work the cache must be purged. The steps to do this are shown below. The specific appveyor project path will need to be adjusted.

    Concept ACK - There’s some related discussion in #17309 and these changes reflect that. i.e no longer needing OpenSSL as part of the Qt build and adding missing vcpkg packages.

    You mentioned here that updating vcpkg for each build would likely be infeasible. Is that no-longer the case, or am I mis-understanding what this does?

    sipsorcery commented at 9:54 pm on November 4, 2019:

    I checked my statement by running the appveyor job with a pull of the vcpkg repo as mentioned in the articles you referenced and I was incorrect about the time it would take.

    The reason being that updating and rebuilding the vcpkg program does not affect already installed packages. In my testing it only added about 2 minutes onto the build time. I wrongly assumed that updating vcpkg would invalidate the existing packages and force them to be re-installed.

    For this PR the vcpkg source does have to be updated to get the latest port files otherwise the build fails (didn’t track down why). After the first successful build thevcpkg update steps can be disabled to save the 2 minutes. It would need to be some kind of conditional disable so that anyone forking the repo still gets a working appveyor config. I can look into it if consensus is the small additional complexity justifies saving 2 minutes.

    This build took 1h14m. Other builds take typically between 33 min and 49 min. Are you sure caching has no effect on the run time?

    That does warrant some further investigation. I’ll look into it further.

    My build times performed sequentially were as below. They seemed fairly consistent even with appveyor’s unpredictability. But given your results I’ll see if maybe I missed something with clcache. It would certainly be nice to speed things up.

    Maybe clcache can be removed in a follow-up? Splitting the change into two commits would also help with review.

    @MarcoFalke the appveyor job will need to have the cache cleared before this PR will build successfully. The Curl command below shows how to do it. You’ll need to replace the project URL.

    All the appveyor builds are failing at the moment due to a new utility class being added to the test_bitcoin program. This PR fixes that.

    Non-expert code review ACK 3c84deebaa311155ccc7565d09525041eed9747c.

    Options changes look as expected and few lines of shell code added seem to do what’s described in comments. I haven’t looked into details of how appveyor build works, so I probably wouldn’t notice any bugs, but the configuration looks reasonable and is very well commented

    Maybe we should have some permanent documentation that says how and when to run this command, if we don’t already

    The cache purge worked. The appveyor job is now installing the vcpkg’s from scratch. The first job will probably fail due to hitting the 1hr time limit. Installing the vcpkg’s (~20mins) + build (~40mins) + test (~15mins) is now too long to do all at once. After the first attempt the vcpkg packages should be cached and subsequent job runs should work.

    It looks like compile time is back at about 50 minutes (like before): https://ci.appveyor.com/project/DrahtBot/bitcoin/builds/28694137

    Ok, this one is 57 minutes, but close enough.
