Visual C++ 2005/2008
« on: June 25, 2009, 03:54:31 pm »
hi
first, I'd like to thank CodeBlocks team for their effort....
I installed CodeBlocks and Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 RC. then I created a simple project with Visual C++ compiler I receive a compiler error but it works with gcc. I know it's not allowed to discuss it here... so my question is how to make sure that I installed visual c++ correctly??
plz, forgive me if my question is not related to the forum.

so my question is how to make sure that I installed visual c++ correctly??
- try a hello world application.
- enable full compiler logging and inspect the log carefully (see my sig)
- make sure you not only setup the patch the the tool chain correctly but also the include and lib path's. There are several required as you have the SDK(s) in a different folder.
Compiler logging: Settings->Compiler & Debugger->tab "Other"->Compiler logging="Full command line"
