I recently wrote win32 C++ code for a SFX creator/extractor exe..

I have VC.Net 2005 'express edition' installed. Can i in anyway
complie my code using this.. I want it to be converted straight to
exe and not the 'intermediate language' used by .net.

Sure, just compile it as a Win32 application and it won't be
managed
code. You'll probably have to download and install the Platform SDK
in order to build it.

-cd




It does not seem to support .rc files. I want my sfx exe to be as
small as possible.


It absolutely does support .rc files. There is no WYSIWYG resource
editor, so you have to either type out the .rc files manually or use
some third party tool to generate them, but once the .rc file has
been
made, VC++ Express will certainly compile it.

The following successfully compiles for me using VC++ Express (beware
of word wrapping in the following lines; in particular, string
literals should be on a single line). I have just taken your code and
made minimal changes. There is probably other stuff relating to
language choice and the like that should go in the .rc file. For your
undefined functions, I just added empty brackets or an appropriate
return statement.

Incidentally, you should not be calling ExitProcess in the event of
failure since that stops C++ code from cleaning itself up properly at
exit. Just let WinMain finish by running out of code lines to
execute.


Thanks.

I have ResEd as an external editor. I followed your steps and tried to
complie but got the following errors:

I do have the platfor SDK installed.. and i have added the bin,lib and
include folders to tools> option> Projects and Solutions >VC++
directories.. under executables files.

Is there any other setting changes i have to make?
