How to Compile with Visual C++ 2005 Express

steps till being able to compile with V C++ 05 Express:

required:

• MS DirectX SDK
• MS Platform SDK

Tools - Options: Projects and Solutions - VC++ Directories

upper right select "executable files" and enter "...\Microsoft Platform SDK\Bin" (replace ... with your path of course)

"include files" --> "...\Microsoft Platform SDK\Include" and "...\Microsoft DirectX SDK (December 2005)\Include"

"libary files" --> "...\Microsoft Platform SDK\Lib" & "...\Microsoft DirectX SDK (December 2005)\Lib\x86"

dbg.h

add

#pragma warning(disable : 4996)

after #pragma once (new line) to disable old, unsecure functions warning.

now the actual error fixes:

All projects

Many, many instances of "error C2065: 'i' : undeclared identifier". This is where there is code like:

for(int i=0; i<XXX; i++)
{
    //do something
}

for( i=0; i<YYY; i++)
{
    //do something else
}

Change the first line to:

int i;
for( i=0; i<XXX; i++)
''etc.''

to fix these problems.

Release-Compile:

client:

..\public\vstdlib\strtools.h(90):

inline char*	Q_strrchr (const char *s, char c)					{ return strrchr( (char *)s, c ); }

..\public\vstdlib\strtools.h(93) zu

inline char*	Q_strstr( const char *s1, const char *search )		{ return strstr( (char *)s1, search ); }

..\cl_dll\hud_bitmapnumericdisplay.cpp(159)

if( bStart || digit > 0 || pos <= pow((float)10,numSigDigits-1) )

..\game_shared\baseentity_shared.cpp(251)

char *s = strchr( (char *)szKeyName, '#' );

..\tier1\KeyValues.cpp(800)

char *subStr = strchr((char *)keyName, '/');

undeclared variable (add "int i;" in front of it, as mentioned before)

..\cl_dll\interpolatedvar.h(538)

..\public\sentence.cpp(735)

..\public\sentence.cpp(1098)

Debug-Compile:

Remove "_base" from those functions. Looks then like that:

#if defined(_DEBUG) && _MSC_VER >= 1300
void __cdecl _aligned_free(
void *
);
void * __cdecl _aligned_malloc(
size_t,
size_t
);
void * __cdecl _aligned_malloc_base(
size_t size,
size_t align
)
{
return _aligned_malloc(size, align);
}

void __cdecl _aligned_free_base(
void *memblock
)
{
_aligned_free(memblock);
}

Other Fixes / Comments

got some info from this forumthreat

i had some errors in c_rope

fixed it once with:

taking the closing "}" from ( int iRenderCache = 0; iRenderCache < nRenderCacheCount; ++iRenderCache )

behind ++m_aRenderCache[iRenderCache].m_nCacheCount;

(means from line 231 (i think) to line 252)

i'm still trying to complete this so it will compile, hope i could help anyone...

grml...

doesn't work neither with express nor with full version... maybe i'm just stupid...

I'll try again this weekend and update here...

User:Rotzi Feb 2006

And still I'm having problems... Just tried it again, Release Client only, but did not get past 3 kinds of errors, wich all in all were 190 errors and 439 warnings...

I also noticed that including user32.lib and excluding LIBC did not change these error-numbers, so atleast up to that point, it did not need them... Still I'm only talking about client-Release Only.

Misc

I'll be getting a copy of Visual Studio 2005 (not express) in the next couple of weeks. Is there a problem compiling on it too or does anybody know yet? --AndrewNeo 07:11, 28 Jan 2006 (PST)

No, what i read is there are no Problems with normal, full Version of VS 05. --Rotzi 4 Fe 2006 (GMT+1)

Force:Multiple error in release - client

How come i get the error like described in the threat, but it won't be fixed by adding "/FORCE:MULTIPLE", but caused by that instead... caused means, without it it doesn't get to that error, or doesn't have it...

msvcrt.lib(MSVCR80.dll) : error LNK2005: _free already defined in memoverride.obj (thats the error)

Added /FORCE:MULTIPLE to Linker->Command Line->Additional Options (and that should be the solution)
