  Run a debug and see why it wont run?

  Yes! FInally it works!

  The problem is when I building resource.rc with rc.exe, I missed to define "_AFXDLL" symbol. After I added paramer: /d "_AFXDLL", everything works fine then.

  Now I'll move on to learn how to make a new plugin. Should be fun

  Thanks guys for your help!

  That line for me reads:

  AngleName += "�";

  That's a degrees character - a small circle to denote an angular measurement.

  Yes, I can see that is a "�" in the repository page: "http://construct.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/construct/IDE/Bars/Animator%20Bar.cpp?revision=1.25&view=markup"

  But after I checked out it just became "?;

  My question is, I can build the construct.exe, but it won't run. I can only guessed it's either because I used wrong version of prof-ui library or I has compiled resource.rc in a wrong way. But as u can see, I have no idea how to figure out.

  Any suggestion?

  It's "Animator Bar.cpp"

  Line 877:

  AngleName += "?;

  It seems like a non-ascii character. When I using web browser to view the file in repository, that line is:

  AngleName += "?";

  Don't know why the last double quotation is missing after checking out.

  I'm using Visual Studio 2005 express edition at home, and my windows is not 64 bit, my DirectX SDK version is 2007 Nov. Should upgrade my DirextX SDK?

  I also tried Visual Studio 2008 Pro which I used at work, but the problem is the same.

  Rich, I wonder how can you compiled the IDE project the first time? As I remembered, there's one one cpp file (cant recall which file) which contains one line of code missing one double quotation mark. Maybe you checked out an earlier version?

  Thanks for all the responses.

  I found out that Visual Studio crashed when compiling "resource.rc". If I remove "resorce.rc" from IDE project, all other files could be compiled without problem.

  I manually compiled "resource.rc" with Rc.exe, and tried to rebuild the IDE project, but after all files been compiled, there's a linker error say "ProfUIS283yn.lib" is missing.

  Since I can only find "ProfUIS283ym.lib" and "ProfUIS283ymd.lib" in the LIBs folder, I just copy ProfUIS283ym.lib into ProfUIS283yn.lib, and now everything could be linked, "Construct.exe" could be generated finally. But... My constrcut.exe won't run

  I went to Prof UI and downloed the builded the 2.83 freeware Library, but still can't get the ProfUIS283yn.lib". I'm stuck, and have no idea what i did wrong?

  I've just checked out the source from CVS, and can build Plugins/Runtime/SDK projects with my Visual C++ Express Edition (with MFC enabled), but failed to build IDE project. Visual Studio crash everytinme when I tried to build IDE project.

  I wonder which version of Visual studio should I use to build the IDE project? Visual C++ 2005 Pro edition? or Visual C++ 2008?

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Thanks.
