Building Issues (MSVC08)

[ZoriaRPG]

You have some include directives with relative filesystem access, pointing above the project, tht do not exist.

Could you please provide files for these include errors, ot tell me what I'm missing?

i have the full DirectX SDK installed, but this isn't pointing to any of that? Clearly it is for the local ddraw project....

Lots of signed/unsigned mismatch, but those aren't as important as OoO warns.

There re also quite a lot of shadow var warnings, and I'm unsure if the i shadow var use is intentional.

That is about 1/3 of them.

Let me know if you want the entire output log.

The header is auto-generated, but I guess I missed the pre-build step in the project files for Visual Studio 2008. You can make the build run through using the attached files - unzip them to the common folder.

[ZoriaRPG]

TY, it now builds.

[William]

Strange; I just unzipped the DXGL source code to a fresh VM with Visual C++ 2008 Express SP1 and it built fine. Next I'll try skipping the build dependencies and see if I can get it to not build.

Make sure you aren't trying to build the "Debug no DXGL" target, as it is very buggy and may only build after building one of the regular targets; it's intended to load DXGL Config in the debugger without loading the DXGL ddraw.dll.

EDIT: Just tested, the "Debug no DXGL" target is indeed broken, causing the error you mentioned. Not sure why MSVC selects it as default. You'll need to select "Debug" for debugging or "Release" for making production binaries.

[ZoriaRPG]

Hmm, I somehow got Debug No dxgl to build at one point, but my target is Release.

Note that the vs9 incremental linker tends to crash--at least for me, so I always set /Incremental No.
