help compiling

Post by leontager » 2004-08-08 17:46

Hi, I've searched thru the forum and I didn't find a solution for my problem. The only possible thing is the SDK is not up to date. But anyway I am trying to compile DC++. I just installed a fresh copy of Windows and VS2003. I downloaded the STLport 4.6.2 and WTL 7.1 from the website. I put a refernce to both folders and I made sure to have STLport on the top. Yet when I compile I get lots of warnings and then it tells me that my STLport is not installed properly.

Please help me :D

No, your SDK is not out of date. That comment in compile.txt was strictly for VS 6.0, and it's been removed in CVS.

You say you put a reference to the stlport and wtl directories - did you put them in Tools > Options > Projects > VC++ Directories > Include (dropdown)? It's hidden, maybe you put them in a Libraries or Executables instead?

sorry about the wrong forum. I just figured it out. I was using hte source for 0.401 and not 0.403. You should mention this on the website cuz its kinda confusing. I never thought this could have been the problem especially since 0.403 is "unstable".

The changes to stlport/wtl are all documented in the changelog, and both source for 0.401 and 0.403 are offered, what more can be done? You figured it out. :)

The correct versions of stlport / wtl aren't supplied for the stable version 0.401,

I had this myself first too, so i just went on using the 'unstable' 0.403 version of dc++.

Enough with the 'stable' and 'unstable', ok?

They are available, you just have to know where to look: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/dcplusplus/

I don't know of any reason someone should use 0.401 instead of 0.4032. If you start changing the 0.401 source, you're already behind in terms of features.
