  1. POFLTK-1.1.10 with Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Express
    text
    copied!<p>I'm attempting to follow Programming - Principles and Practice Using C, and am loving it so far. At the start of last week, I hit a problem that has stopped further progress. I'm required to install FLTK.</p> <p>After successfully managing to build and run FLTK-1.3.0 (see my other question/solution), I've run into the problem that it doesn’t run with Stroustrup's header files. I think this is due to the versions being different, but don't know for sure.</p> <p>So I'm back to trying to get 1.1 working. </p> <p>I've not managed to be able to build FLTK-1.1.10 or the fltk-1.1.9 from his website using MVC++2010.</p> <p>So this leads us to the questions</p> <p>1) If I build it using MinGW/Msys, will it still be able to be run from VC++? I've been trying to figure out MinGW/Msys with little success so far, so I've yet to build anything, so I can't test this myself yet.</p> <p>2) If it won't run a MinGW build, is there a way to build it with VC++?</p> <p>From my understanding -Building will create more files in the FLTK directory that will allow me to use it. -MinGW uses a different compiler to VC++ and they won't play well together</p> <p>I feel I've wasted a lot of time on this section, however it's a good learning experience. Probably not so good for my blood pressure.</p> <p>I guess at this point my main alternative is to move to another IDE. Eclipse seems pretty nice. But I'd really like to solve this problem rather than move away from VC++.</p> <p>My previous post ( <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11357047/microsoft-2010-visual-c-installing-fltk">Microsoft 2010 visual c , installing FLTK</a> ) details the errors that occur during compile, in case that is of any interest.</p> <p>I've heavily googled this issue, and have yet to find a real solution. I hope this post will clarify the issue for myself and other future programmers.</p>
