I'll make this short and to the point. The _asm block has been completely stripped when creating 64 bit code in Visual Studio. My question is, where can I find some information on how to use assembly in some code that I can call from my project. Like an assembly file I suppose that has some "optimized" function in which I can call direct...

If it is possible, is it also possible to do the same for resources? I'm thinking specifically about test classes that are only run in the Debug ...

Visual Studio projects assumes all files belonging to the project are situated in the same directory as the project file, or one underneath it. For a particular project (in the non-Visual Studio sense) this is not what I want. I want to store the MSVC-specific files in another folder, because there might be other ways to build the appli...

Hello, In a custom toolset I have installed for Visual Studio, there is a popup window that should appear to me so that I can manipulate one of the lists (an in-built editor).

The trouble is that compiling xlsLib, I give a .a file (a GCC static library, generated by MinGW). But, my application depends on another API (PhysX) that only compiles with Visual Studio. Thus: is it possible to transform th...
I use Visual C# 2008 Express Edition. I would like to be able to create an installer for a project I have. I can kind of do it with the Publish tool, but you get little to no control. Is there a free way to do this, or do I need to spring for the full-blown version of VS2008? -or- Do I just not know what I am doing when publishing? ...

I have seen applications capable of sending information to Logitech LCD panels and played with that a bit a few years ago. Currently, I have four small LCD panels. Two are CrystalFontz 633s, one came from a 1U EMC data storage box and one was taken from an old ethernet-based KVM, so I've no idea what it's capabilities are. Using eithe...

I'm installing CGAL 3.5.1. To compile any part of it, I need CGAL/compiler_config.h, which, according to the manual, I have to generate by running cmake. Do I really need to download and run cmake, or is there a simpler way? I'm using Visual Studio 2005 on x64 Windows. So maybe I can download a ready config for this combination, or read...
