FWH V8.05 with Visual Studio 2008 - Buildhm Tutor01 Problem?

angelo.c · Post by **angelo.c** » Tue Jun 17, 2008 3:50 pm

I have just bought FWH V8.05 and tried this first example build as such:

My Environment is FWH8.05 and Visual Studio 2008
(I use the MSVC versions of the FWH libraries)

I execute the build command:

Buildhm tutor01

and get the following errors:

Can you provide some guidance as to where I need to start looking to fix these issues

Angelo,

You have to link msimg32.lib from Microsoft too, for AlphaBlend.

Regarding the CHM symbols, please compile and link source\winapi\helpchm.prg as another PRG of your application, thanks

Thank you for your quick reply.

It now compiles/links/runs OK.

However I get these warnings: .... section '.CRT' (40000040) merged into '.data' (C0000040) with different attributes.

Can I safely ignore these warning?

Angelo,

Yes, you can safely ignore those warnings.

Let me advise you that most of FWH users are using the free Borland C compiler ( http://www.fivetechsoft.com/files/freec ... etools.exe )

We do recommend you to use Borland C as it is very popular and most of utilities and libraries that you may need in a near future are built with Borland, and can't be mixed with Microsoft VC.

Hello Antonio,

I have done as you ask. I now use Borland C compiler from the Link you have provided. I can now compile/Link/run the Tutor0x.prg examples.

I saw the "testdll.prg" DLL example and tried the "buildhd.bat tutor01" batch file command. I Got the following linking error.
