Troubleshooting "program does not contain a static 'Main' method" when it clearly does...?

My MS Visual C# program was compiling and running just fine. I close MS Visual C# to go off and do other things in life.

Is it possible to compile perl with -DDEBUGGER option on Windows using ActivePerl?

compile c code in vs 2005

Is there an easy way to compile c code in visual studio 2005? Its been a while(2-3 years) since I've done any coding in either c or c++, but I remember that you used to be able ti, in vs 2003, compile c code in visual studio.

Trying to compile slapd on cygwin, what does this automake error mean?

I'm trying to compile a very old verion of slapd (the LDAP server) on cygwin. Previously this ran on a Linux box, but for reasons beyond my control it must be made to work on a Windows server. It has been suggested that we might use cygwin to compile up the source-code. Unfortunately the build fails during "configure" with the error mes...

Python - why compile?

This may seem like a dumb question, but why would you compile a python script? You can run them directly from the .py file and it works fine, so is there a performance advantage or something? I also notice that some files in my application get compiled into .pyc while others do not, why is this? ...

I got this project, where there this error keeps occurring and its not on my table to fix it right now. I have other priorities. This error isn't that big deal as well for the rest of the project - but everytime this error gets thrown when I launched the debug player in Flex Builder, it shuts down the player right away. Is it possible t...

ASP.NET Web Application - compiling .cs files

I guess I have been using the Web Site model ever since .NET 2.0 and never looked back. Now I'm using the Web Application mode on a few projects. How do you tell the compiler to compile .cs files in the project? I assume you can do this since the newer-MVC projects do it for the Controllers. I have a class, RestRouteHandler, that implem...

Just started C++: Undefined Symbol error on Compile

Here's the situation: I just started my first C++ class. I know nothing about C++ and despite this being the an intro to C++ class, the teacher has taught pretty much NO syntax for the language, just logic that we already know. Now he gave us a program description and said, "write it, lol." I understand the logic fine, but as I said be...

On-the-fly, in-memory java code compilation for Java 5 and Java 6

How can I compile java code from an arbitrary string (in memory) in Java 5 and Java 6, load it and run a specific method on it (predefined)? Before you flame this, I looked over existing implementations: Most rely on Java 6 Compiler API. Those that don't, rely on tricks. Yes, I checked out commons-jci. Either I'm too dense to understa...

Trying to compile and debug C++ from Vim

I've been learning C++ and Allegro using Code::Blocks on Windows XP, and recently felt like learning Vim. However, I have no idea how to compile a program "manually" (i.e., without using an IDE). For compiling from within Vim, I have gotten as far as setting the makeprg to gcc, but I understand I also need a makefile. What is that and h...

Running :make from gVim in Background

I use gVim in windows to edit my code (mostly C++). I use :make in gVim to compile the project, but this is a blocking operation, that prevents me from using gVim until the compilation is complete. How can I do :make asynchronously and still get the benefits of reading the errors back into Vim and jump to the errors in source code? Bonus...
