Here's what I finally did. I went to another machine and installed Visual Studio 2005. I then got the latest fltk build fltk-2.0.x-r6140.tar.gz and proceeded to build the static build.
I had an error on delete_associations_for in Widget.cxx that you might have seen in an earlier post. SO I commented out lines 86 and 96 in Widget.cxx. This allowed everything to build. My sourceforge project that uses the fltk tookkit is now running properly in visual studio 2008. I have learned that visual studio 2008 has a number of errors trying to compile fltk. You might want to look at this when you have the time. Thank you for all the help, you guys are very responsive! take care Nick _______________________________________________ fltk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.easysw.com/mailman/listinfo/fltk
