Compile with Visual Studio .NET 2003 (NOT from command line)
Posted: 05.02.2007, 15:43
Hi.
I'm trying to create a solution with Microsoft Visual Studio 2003 because I would like to debug Celestia in Visual Studio:
- I downloaded the current sources of Celestia (1.4.1)
- I converted all the .dsp from UNIX format to PC format
- I opened it with Visual Studio 2003 and I converted the .dsw in a solution (.sln)
- All the projects compiled without problems, except for the project "Celestia". When I built this project all the .cpp were correct, but there were some linking errors. In the following lines I copied only 6 of the 45 unresolved externals:
**********

**********
I also tryed to modify the properties of each project as shown in this mail http://www.celestiaproject.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5305, but it didn't work.
Is there anybody who tried to do the same before me? I read on the forum that the current .dsw is not upgradated. Is there a simple way to correct it?
Or is there an oldest version (hopefully not too old
) of Celestia wich compile correctly in Visual Studio 2003 (not from command line)?
Thank You

perhaps, if you solve above problem, you could donate new solution/project files to the team so we all would use it?
. Since quite a lot of files are generated (given that the solution 'Celestia' contains a number of projects, each with its own set of project files) you will have to go on trying yourself, I am afraid.
