Compiling with Visual C++ 2010?

Uniquesone · 06-29-2010, 06:00 PM #1

Hello. I want to compile Dolphin with Visual C++ 2010.

The problem I have is, that the DirecX SDK is not included in the VC++ Directory.

On wiki it says "Tools > Options > Projects > VC++ Directories"

But in 2010 it doesnt exists anymore. Instead the you have to add the VC++ to the single project files.

But which Project file need the DirectX SDK to be included?

I also get an error that "Cannot open include file: 'CL/cl.h'" Couldnt be found.
Do I need to include the ATI Stream SDK?

Maybe there is a guide for Visual C++ 2010 edition?

Thanks

Building with 2010 is not support at this moment. It works, if you're willing to invest enough time to fix problems that occur due to the update from 2008 to 2010, but you shouldn't expect much support.
If you can, you're probably better off getting Visual C++ 2008 again.

Ok thank you.

When Ive fixed it should I share the solution with the community? So It can be added to svn? (One for 2008 and one for 2010?)

I know that C# projects made with VS2010 that do not use 2010-specific features can be loaded by 2008 (the solution cannot). I don't know about C++ projects, and I don't think we'll be adding it to SVN on short term.
You can, however, write up steps required to convert the solution and fix problems, and I can sticky it in here.

Note that Issue 1636 on GoogleCode has a few hints in case you need anything.
