VC7 Project Files and 1.2

by Brad Shapcott · in Torque Game Engine · 12/07/2003 (2:18 pm) · 3 replies

I've recently downloaded a clean copy of the most recent CVS HEAD.

My Visual C++ .Net can't open either the VC6 or VC7 workspace/solution or projects files. It says the workspace/solution files are corrupt, and the project files for VC7 require 7.10 and my VC++ is 7.0 (7.0.9466 to be exact). I assume 7.10 == VC++ .Net 2003. I'm not super excited about putting out cash for yet another Microsoft software upgrade (especially since there are rarely any new features that I really want or need, and there actually isn't event an upgrade discount for the Standard version), so has anyone created solution or project files for the earlier version of VC++ .Net (7.0 == 2002) for 1.2?

I was able to open the VC7 projects in VC2003 without any issues. If you can find any VC2002 projects on the net you might be able to compare and constrast and thus manually convert them - they're just text files.

Also, trust me. The upgrade to 2003 is worth it, just for the new c++ compiler alone.

Most of the changes are simply editing the first line in the files to a lower version number. But you do lose the build order information if you do this.
