First, be sure to see the README pertaining to Windows development available in the OEChem section of the download page, which describes the required compiler versions. In the MSVC distribution, the Makefile at openeye/examples/oechem/ contains the recommended compilation flags for use with MS Visual Studio/C/C++ (although most developers will not use make). As of OEChem 1.3.3, example project files are provided with the distribution.

Assuming that you have successfully installed C-Sharpener For VB, the menu option should automatically appear. If it doesn't appear, then try the following: Turn on the checkbox to the left of C-Sharpener For VB and click the OK button. The menu option should now appear.

This project is my hobby and the last thing I want to do in my spare time was use a language or environment I don't enjoy (I code on Macs during the day, and that's enough pain ^_^). I like C#, and I love Visual Studio. Just about any argument you can create against it can be countered, so don't even try. If you don't like it, you don't have to use it; I know that this is certainly my philosophy with other languages/environments!

Microsoft didn't get its Standard C++ act together until Visual C++ 2003. (a.k.a. version 7.1) If you must use older versions of VC++, you're stuck with either the C API, or the ancient 1.7.1 release of MySQL++. This version is an unofficial third-party contribution which is known to have bugs. If it works, I'm happy for you. If it breaks, you get to keep both pieces. Microsoft is giving away a limited but functional version of Visual C++ 2005 which works just fine with MySQL++.

How do I get the default namespace of a C# project in Visual Studio? To get the default namespace of a C# project developed using VS.NET, you need to right-click on the project in the Solution Explorer and then choose Properties | Common Properties |...

It is assumed that the reader is familiar with the Haskell Foreign function interface (FFI), and is able to compile Haskell programs with GHC and C++ programs with Visual Studio. GHC has two modes of code generation. It either compiles Haskell straight into object code (native mode), or translates Haskell into intermediate C code, and uses a C compiler as backend. The Windows distribution of GHC comes bundled with the GCC compiler, which is used as backend.

Use our Mono Migration Analysis tool to check if everything that your application uses has been implemented in Mono or if there are special considerations to keep in mind. The Mono API today is somewhere in between .NET 1.1 and .NET 2.0, see our Roadmap for details about what is implemented.

The service has been tested with a C# client auto-generated from WSDL by the wsdl.exe tool. It should work fine from any .NET language.

I have code snippets that I use often. How can I manage them so I can easily used them? In Visual Studio, you can store commonly used code snippets on a tab (other than the Clipboard ring) in your Toolbox. You use drag and drop techniques to move the...

No. While Visual Studio makes deploying "ClickOnce" applications simple, there are several other ways to deploy "ClickOnce" applications. The .NET Framework SDK includes a tool named MAGE(Manifest Editor & Generator) that provides both a UI (mageui...

skmMenu can be downloaded in one of two flavors - as a stand-alone binary (the skmMenu.dll assembly), or as a source-code project. The compiled binary is compiled for the .NET Framework version 1.1 and was compiled using Visual Studio .NET 2003. To use skmMenu on a Web site using the .NET Framework version 1.0, you will need to donwload the source code version and compile it with Visual Studio .NET 2002. To accomplish this, do the following: Manually add in the downloaded .cs and Menu.

In Visual Studio, all my docking windows are out of whack. How can I reset them so things will be docked properly? You can use the menu item Tools|Options, and then select Reset Window Layout. A second alternative is to close Visual Studio, and then delete...

The macro editor is not a part of Wise for Visual Studio .NET because Visual Studio has it's own macro editor that can be used to automate Wise installations. Source control integration has also been removed as it is not longer necessary due to our interface with the Visual Studio .NET source control. The Import Visual Basic Product Wizard has been removed because the integration eliminates the need for this function.

YES! The code of the device driver you write runs in normal Win32 user mode. Therefore, you can compile and debug your code using MSDEV/MSVC++. Please refer to Technical Document #19 for more information regarding debugging your driver code with WinDriver and KernelDriver. If you need to define more than WD_CARD_ITEMS items for your card (currently 20 items, according to the definition of WD_CARD_ITEMS in windrvr.

Visual C++ is Microsoft's premiere Windows programming environment. While there are several interesting, up-and-coming contenders in the client/server marketplace, C++ has proven itself to be the best tool available today for building large-scale, mission-critical applications. Although "Fourth Generation" programming environments offer features for rapid development, the end-results are often disappointing or impractical for large-scale implementations.

Yes. In order to do this you will need to buy Visual Studio Team Foundation Server and a Client Access License for proper communication with the server. Team Explorer, which is included with Team Foundation Server, is a stand alone client that uses the Visual Studio 2005 shell providing a UI for source control, work item tracking and all the other features. For more information on licensing Visual Studio Team System (including Team Foundation Server) see the Team System Licensing White Paper.

The Visual Studio Express Editions are an expansion of the Visual Studio and SQL Server product line to include fun, simple and easy-to-learn tools for non-professional developers like hobbyists, students and novice developers who want to build dynamic Windows applications, Web sites, and Web services.

Answer: Yes, as long as the application conform to logo requirements. Sometimes older runtime libraries violate security rules (es. Write access to WRP resources) or reliability rules (es. Fail APPVerifier checks). Migration to Framewark 2 is recommended but not required. In such cases, the ISV can contact swlogo@microsoft.com to work out solutions on a case by case basis. Answer: Certificates can be obtained from third party Certificate Authorities such as Verisign or Geotrust.

MS Windows support is relatively recent, and still experimental; Freeciv was originally written for Unix and the X window system, and is, in fact, extremely portable across Unix versions. One option is to install a Unix variant on your PC (such as Linux) and use that. The Freeciv client is unable to open a window on your local X display. Are you running an X server at all? Maybe you need to install and run one, or switch to a Freeciv that doesn't need X; see the previous question.

This FAQ provides basic instructions for installing and building ACE+TAO for Windows with Visual C++. ACE+TAO can also be used on other major modern operating systems, such as Linux, Solaris, AIX, and HP-UX, and some real-time and embedded operating systems, such as VxWorks, LynxOS, Timesys Linux, and Windows CE. On Windows, ACE+TAO can also be built with the Borland C++ compiler.

Recall that when you delete[] an array, the runtime system magically knows how many destructors to run. This FAQ describes a technique used by some C++ compilers to do this (the other common technique is to use an associative array). If the compiler uses the "over-allocation" technique, the code for p = new Fred[n] looks something like the following.

Visual C++ provides its own STL implementation, and some of the other Microsoft C++ library headers may rely on that implementation. In particular, the SGI STL has not been tested in combination with Microsoft's new <iostream> header. It has been used successfully with the older <iostream.h> header.

There is some work being done to create a free port of XFree86 to Microsoft Windows. However, in the mean time, if you need to run X on such a platform you'll need to use one of the available commercial servers. One of the commercial products, X Appeal, is from an XFree86 sponsor and is a port of the XFree86 servers to MS-DOS. They also have a freely available demo version. X11R6.3 does include some support for MicroSoft Windows NT.
