[RESOLVED] Modding LCS, little problem
« on: October 27, 2010, 02:23:21 pm »
Hi !
First thanks for this awesome game, this is way better than most recent attempt at political crime games lol.
I recently downloaded the sources from the SVN, I tried to mod things here and there, though when I try to build those modded sources, it gives me the following error message, for each file to build :
"1>g:\users\oscuro1987\desktop\lcs-dev\trunk\src\cmarkup/Markup.h(169) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'afx.h': No such file or directory"

Tool used : Microsoft visual C++ 2010 Express. I know there is a problem including afx.h with express editions, but did anyone of you find a wayaround to this ?

Thanks in advance !

CORRECTION : I mistaken, I use visual studio 2008 express not 2010 express.

You could try defining MARKUP_STL.

It seems it has already been done, the problem is that there is no AFH.H in the express version of visualC++

Are you sure? Looking at the code, it shouldn't try to include afx.h if MARKUP_STL is defined.

I wish I could help here, but since the markup stuff was added since the last time I touched the code, the only advice I can give is that if nothing else works, you could go back and check out an earlier revision; for example, revision 396 is 4.01.4, and I don't think Markup.h was in it at all. I would only do this if you can't get it to work -- you'll be missing all of the changes that have been made since the last major release.

aww.. Well this is a very good idea but as you said I won't have your updates :s.
But I'll try anyway, and eventually fix my problem with cmarkup thing !
Thanks ! :)

EDIT : or i could try to reproduce the updates you made, but I don't dare.. I don't have your skill lol
EDIT 2 : indeed, the latest 4.02b wasn't compilable with my tools (because of afx.h), 'cause express versions of visual c++ doesn't have that :s. I reverted to 396 as you said now it works, thanks !! :))

Oh, they weren't my updates, or I probably could have offered a better solution. :) I don't know what the purpose of all the most recent changes were, since I haven't worked on the game in awhile. It's just that if someone took the time to make them, I hate to suggest sidestepping them except as a last resort.

Version 4.02 was before I added CMarkup to LCS and CMarkup is the only part that uses afx.h (if MARKUP_STL is not defined) so you shouldn't have had a problem with 4.02.

Did you try compiling with parameter /DMARKUP_STL ?
