I am trying to install Pulse in win11, using CMake and MSVC. After completion of process everything seems fine. Only problem is install/bin folder does not have the essential substance and other files which are generally present. Please Help!

There is an error somewhere in the build process.

You can try opening a cmd terminal from your bin directory and running

> run genData

I suspect that the build found python 3.14, but you have a different python version on your path

run genData

The next thing to look at, is if there is an architecture mismatch between C++ and Java.

For example, you installed a 32 bit JDK and are building a 64 bit PulseJNI.dll or you installed a 64 bit JDK and are building a 32 bit PulseJNI.dll

To see what JDK architecture, type `java -version`

And open MSVC and look at this dropdown
