I think the following two source code fixes will fix Philo's problem (I
am able to build with them under VC 6)...
1) Line 55 of Propspgs.cpp reads thus:
ON_EN_CHANGE(IDC_PROP_SUM_NAME,
&CPropertiesSummary::OnEnChangePropSumName)
VC 6.0 doesn't like this syntax, throwing 6 errors based on it.
Replace that line with:
ON_EN_CHANGE(IDC_PROP_SUM_NAME, OnEnChangePropSumName)
(that is, remove the text "&CPropertiesSummary::")
the CPropertiesSummary:: scoping is unnecessary, since this use is
within that scope already, and there is no reason to use the address-of
operator on OnEnChangePropSumName, since it is a member function of
CPropertiesSummary, and would be furnished as an address by the compiler
in any case (furthermore, the function doesn't actually do anything yet
:-)).
2) Lines 889 and 909 cause a conflict with one another. The scoping
rules of variables declared in for() statements changed in the ANSI
standard, and VC 6 is unhappy about this usage; it sees that i has been
declared twice within the scope of SystemUpdateModelMenu. There are a
couple fixes to this. The loop at lines 889-890 could be changed to use
a different identifier (such as i2 -- see my alternate instructions
below for the best type of solution); the lines from 909-947 could also
be changed.
EASIEST STEP 2 SOLUTION if you want as few code changes as possible
The easiest is to change line 909 from:
for (int i = 0; i < ModelList.GetSize(); i++)
to:
for (i = 0; i < ModelList.GetSize(); i++)
END EASIEST STEP 2 SOLUTION
(just remove the int declarator on i)
this will "reuse" i from the first declaration and build cleanly.
If you just want it building under VC 6, you're done. Unfortunately, the
second solution will then cause Visual Studio 2005 to stop building
because of line 909. Eventually, a change something like this is necessary:
ALTERNATE STEP 2 SOLUTION that is more universal:
- leave line 909 alone (don't perform both of these solutions)
- change 889-890 from:
for (int i = 1; i < LC_MODEL_MENU_MAX; i++)
Menu->DeleteMenu(ID_MODEL_MODEL1 + i, MF_BYCOMMAND);
to:
for (int j = 1; j < LC_MODEL_MENU_MAX; j++)
Menu->DeleteMenu(ID_MODEL_MODEL1 + j, MF_BYCOMMAND);
(change all references to identifier i to a new identifier j)
END ALTERNATE STEP 2 SOLUTION
Note that I am not building 3dsftk, jpeglib, libpng or zlib in the
version I'm working with, so I had to unload those projects in order to
get the link to work properly.
Note further that, in order to get the source to fully build with Visual
Studio .NET, I had to add wininet.lib to the list of link libraries - I
think this is possibly related to buggy behavior when VS.NET converted
the .dsw file to a .vsproj file, since VC 6 was able to build fine
without this adjustment.
