Compiling with Visual studio .net 2003

by Travis (Talnaus) Ott · in Torque Game Engine · 09/26/2006 (3:56 am) · 7 replies

Hi i have a question on how i would compile using vs2003. since i couldnt find much on 2003 i was reading the 2005 compiling resource

i have read tdn.garagegames.com/wiki/Torque/vs2k5 but it gets confusing in the old part of it.

what do i do just open the

\vc7\Torque SDK.sln

and it doenst ask to conversion wizzard or anything it opens onto the object browser.

then i just lost until i read where it says to compile but i dont want a screw anything up. so how do i correctly configure vs2003 to what ever. or do i just have to open the project then build ?

Perhaps this would be of more use.

But yeah. if the project file is setup right.. all you'd have to to is open.. and build.

You have to quit Torque before you re-compile. Else it can't write the new output file.

The warnings about the pragmas are benign; you can ignore them.

Torque is closed when i tried, but this time when i did the build i didnt get the warnings, just the error
Torque Demo fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file '../example/torqueDemo.exe'

i have tried it 4 xtra times also. same error.

Is there a way to use VS .net to bug check it?
