Hey there having a little difficulty setting up C::B with VC++2010, reason I'm using C::B over the VC++ 2010 IDE is that my laptop isn't very fast (Pentium III, 512MB RAM) so C::B runs/loads alot faster than VC++2010.
Basically the "default" VC++ compiler location sets it self to the VC++ 2008 edition, and so I have to manually enter the path for the toolchain etc. I'm a hobbyist programmer so I'm not sure what the extra options really mean in regards to what additional options I should be setting (sorry if thats a bit vague), I have the windows platform SDK installed but whenever I try to compile including the "windows.h" header file it says:
fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'windows.h': No such file or directory|
Now I'm not sure if this is because I haven't configured C::B correctly or if its something else, because of this sorry if this is the wrong section to post this in. What I have done though is replaced the path of the default VC++ 2008 toolchain with the 2010 edition (where the compiler etc resides), although I'm still getting the error when trying to compile.
Trying with the standard headers for example like this:
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void){
return 0;
}
And i get this from the build message box:
LINK||fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'kernel32.lib'|
Bit stuck..
