Hi,

I've mainly done all my programming with GCC but now I would like to compile my very own DC++. So I installed VS.NET2003 and got the DC++ source. I even installed the newest SDK.
But how do I install the WTL 7.1 Package and the stlport? I mean, since I haven't use VS before, i don't know how it works. Yes, this might be a general question and perhaps doesn't belong here, but since the files I'm installing is closely related to DC++ and probably you all have installed them, I thought I'd give it a go.

Thanks in advance.

installing, here, means nothing more than chucking them into some directory
and adding those directories as include paths (which can be found somewhere in configuration under c++ settings.. or something)

OK thanks. Now I have everything in my include path and the compiler finds them. However, I get an error "stdarg.h(23) : fatal error C1014: too many include files : depth = 1024". Now what's this? I know it means that the include nests too deep, but how I can overcome it? It should not happen after I followed all the instructions about compiling (at DC++ website), or should it?

Never mind, it seems that when I re-installed the stlport and wtl (meaning, I re-unpacked them from zips) everything worked just fine. I don't know why it bugged like that the first time, and actually I don't care. Now it works, and the program is compiled

Thanks again...
