What would be the best approach if I wanted to update just this component and reuse the libraries th...

I decided to try Visual C++ Express and didn't like it so I went back to Code::Blocks. However, when I went to run a program in Code::Blocks I noticed that all of my files were saved under the format VCExpress.cpp.9.0. I deleted all of the files and went to where I have all of them uploaded to re-download them. However, they keep being s...

I am converting a makefile project into a Visual Studio VC++ project. It's actually C source code. One of the statements I have in my makefile is: echo char * gLibraryBuildSig ="%DATE% %TIME%"; > BuildTimestamp.c This produces a C source file with a single line in it: char * gLibraryBuildSig ="Sun 08/23/2009 17:56:05.05"; In the...

However, when I attempt to load it with DllImport in C#, it says this: System.DllNotFoundException: Unable to load DLL 'ei.dll': The specified module could not be found. (Exception from H...
I'm porting VC++7 codebase to VC++9. Surprisingly Visual Studio 2008 highlights internal as a keyword in C++ code but looks like it is not really treated as such. What is this - a bug in VS, an environment setting I haven't found yet, or a sign that I will no longer be allowed to use internal as a regular identifier in some upcoming ver...
