I have VS 6.0 (from an old project) and VS 2005 installed on my laptop. Is it possible to set up the projects (created in 6.0, but opened in 2005) to use the VS 6.0 compiler? Or doesn't that matter?
tnx!

Hi V.
You have a project in VC6 and you want to open it in 2005?yes
|
|
|
|

Not exactly, opening them is easy, but compiling seems to be different. I get errors in the 2005 compiler that I don't get in the 6.0 compiler. So what I want to do is use the 2005 as editor and use the compiler or compiler settings from the 6.0.
tnx!

VS 6.0 creates DSW and DSP files, VS 2005 uses SLN and VCPROJ, so workspaces of VS 6.0 and 2005 can happily coexist without interferring.
Create a workspace in VS 6.0 and a workspace in VS 2005. This way you can compile the project using both compilers.
Best regards

_outp(0x64, 0xAD);
and
__asm mov al, 0xAD __asm out 0x64, al
do the same... but what do they do??

Tnx for your reply, but that wasn't what I meant (my apologies).
I get errors with a 2005 compiler that I don't get with the 6.0 compiler. Maybe I have to set my settings differently, but that would take a long time no? Maybe you can import those settings?

I have Project in Visuall 2003 and I compiled on the 2005 but i received
errors in 2005 But It run in 2003 and it's not error
|
|
|
|

i understand you problem well i think, but what you're trying to do is not very good.
all is a matter of standard compliance. the VC6 compiler has been released few months before the standard was edited. then Visual C++ 7.1 (VS.NET 2003) came with better comformance to the new standard needs. it might be worst with VC8 (which is said to respect the standard at about 98%).
i think that it could take you some time to fix the bugs instead of compiling back your 2005 solution with VC6 compiler.
as i don't have Visual studio installed at work, i cannot tell you how to change the setting you require, but you should consider better fix those error...

when you run project in 2005 you have a question that you need to convert yes?

opening or even using the old VS 6.0 files isn't the issue, I want to be able to compile it as it is compiled in 6.0 that's all. I could get out all the errors, but I'm not allowed, besides, I'm not starting to get the bugs out of more then 100 projects.
It isn't that important, but thanks for the effort.

So why not just fix the errors so that your code will compile cleanly with VS2005?

2 reasons,
1) I'm not allowed
2) there are more then 100 projects ...

I trust this is not a mission critical application. Why even bother using VS2005?

it's the core code of our app. I'm not allowed to meddle with it except on rare occasions. The trouble is that now I have two VSs on my laptop and in the VS 6.0 I don't seem to have intellisense or the fact that if I say go to definition he says the build wasn't set correctly. In order to build the project I have to use the batch file they created for it else it will fail  .
So imagine trying to find something with 'find in file' .
Second reason why I want to convert them is that I'm afraid they won't go forward with the new porjects either (I have to push them a little  )
But as you said it's not that critical, but it would have been easier .

I was wondering how to add a customized icon to a simple c++ win32 console application. I guess this question has been asked a lot of times before, but I couldn't find an answer here on elsewhere in the web.
I'm using Visual Studio 2003.
thanks,
Norbert

Haven't read the prerequisite literature (eg. Programming Windows or Teach yourself Visual C++ in 24 hours) before delving into Win32, eh  ?

Does this work for console applications?

Yes (although I admit that the icon on the title bar just looks too weird for my tastes).

I think your answer in the example MFC (I think Cube) in the Example MSDN
that this is a square with Opengl

How to handle shell extensions for 64 bit pc?
-- modified at 5:40 Friday 10th March, 2006

Mostly recompile your 32-bit shell extension DLL to Win64 (making sure you eliminate all warnings). Crank up the warning level and enable /Wp64 to ensure you eliminate all 64-bit related problems.
Registering the DLL is slightly tougher, so you are recommended to use a setup package to do it for you (I heard that Inno setup was upgraded to support Win64).
