help loading dc++ source

Post by squeek » 2004-05-03 05:49

please somebody help me
i have installed the MS Visual Studio .net 2003 Enterprise Architect (which i payed for)
the problem i have is, when trying to open the project using MS Visual Studio .net 2003 Enterprise Architect, I get an error telling me that the file i am trying to open is version 7.10 and that it can only open versions of 7.0 ???
i thought MS Visual Studio .net 2003 Enterprise Architect was the latest version?
i cant seem to open any of the files, i get the same error every time :(

ive always wanted to learn how to program in C++ and by looking on the forum here i know there are some good knowlegeable ppl here. i would be so greatful for any help.
thanks

Double-click on the "DCPlusPlus.vcproj" file located in the local root of the source-distribution.
Everyone is supposed to download from the hubs, - I don´t know why, but I never do anymore.

I would have thought the solution file better, as the solution contains many projects

Visual Studio Solution file - DCPlusPlus

Begin with redownaloding the dc++ source and if that doesn't help, try to reinstall vs .net.

Visual Studio .NET 2003 is version 7.10 - check the About dialog. If you're getting complaints that you cannot open 7.1 version of the projects, you likely have .NET 2002 (again, check the Help>About dialog box).
