MS VC++ Express Editon

[MMcCants]

Is anyone using the express edition to develop plugins? I can't get the SDK to compile and was just wondering if anyone had the same problem.

Using Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition Beta 2 and latest PSDK.

What errors are you getting?

 

[MMcCants]

Im not sure how much of this is due to me never using Visual C++ before. I typically write C++ in Dev-Cpp. I'll show the first few errors.

1>c:\program files\microsoft visual studio 8\vc\include\winnt.h(3035) : warning C4103: 'c:\program files\microsoft visual studio 8\vc\include\winnt.h' : alignment changed after including header, may be due to missing #pragma pack(pop)

after that all the errors say that these functions are not in the formal parameter list.

I dont think those are related to the CC2 SDK at all.

What happens if you just make a "hello world" app?

 

[MMcCants]

Your basic Hello World compiles fine.

Hm, ok then.

It still has to be a MSVC/PSDK header/lib problem though... none of those functions listed above are used in CC2 directly.

Ill get the new MSVC installed and see what i can find.
