visual c++ .net compile problem... odd fatal error

Hi,

This is the first project I have done using the .NET version of the visual C++ compiler. When I went to compile my windows code I got an error that said C1010: unexpected end of file while looking for the precompiled header directive? I've had an unexpected end of file error before, but never this one. Has anyone else ever run into this issue?

Are you using precompiled headers? If not, you need to unset that option in the project settings. If you are, make sure the file "StdAfx.h" or whatever your precompiled header is named, is included first in every cpp file.

Just do a search for "precompiled header"

Then just turn off the feature inside the project settings.

It's just some lame attempt at "improving" the build times of projects, which might have been a good idea a decade or two ago, but it refuses to go away nontheless.

It's also a way of locking your code into their compiler if you decide to make use of it, but that's another story.

Ya I get it now. I didn't check the "Empty Project" option and ended up with that I am sillyI am sillyI am sillyI am silly already in my project.

Thanks, it's fixed now.
