just a follow up:
Out of curiosity, I tried to compile some old DKit plugins I wrote 15 years
ago in Visual Studio 2012 on windows 7. Other than some warnings about
deprecated standard C library functions, they compile successfully.
However, I ran into a few link errors I could not figure out how to resolve:
1>dkit.lib(tinyFcurve.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol
__adj_fdivr_m64
1>dkit.lib(tinyFcurve.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol
__adjust_fdiv
1>dkit.lib(tinyFcurve.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol
__adj_fdiv_r
1>dkit.lib(tinyFcurve.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol
__adj_fdiv_m32
1>E:\dev\projects\si3d\Release\checker.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 4
unresolved externals
Online I found an old microsoft KB article which describes the problem as
one specific to visual studio 2.0/2.1:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/128895
Unfortunately, the suggested workaround of using the "/QIfdiv-" compiler
option is no longer recognized by today's visual studio. Unless I can find
the modern day equivalent, I'll need to use Visual C++ v6.0. :-(
