Hello Martin,

I've donwloaded and unpacked this SDK V2, and I'm very desappointed 'cause I cann't open any solution with my version of Visual C++ Express (the free one )!

cheers

OK!!!!
Not strange at all!
I don't know how I did this, but I run a Visual C++ 2005!
Tell me pleazzze: where did you dwnload this C++ 2008?!
Thanks and sorry for this stupid post!
I'm impatient to start!

cheers

Hello Yan,

Thanks for the link. Google doesn't like me and makes some jokes I don't appreciate!
I had to know that there was a 2008 edition and ask for it...
Now, let's go!

cheers

let us know your 'not coder' feeling about it

'Not coder', exactly. I'll talk, don't worry!

Even if it's not directly related to Usine,
i'll try to put some links to CPP basics on the WIKI, as it can help to understand the syntaxe, and how to manipulate data.

Can't promise you 'll become a master, but you should arrive to make some user module pretty easly.

A+

Bouh...
C++ give me headaches. I understand absolutely nothing, it seems *very* different from VB that I now know a little...
Architecture is different, concepts are different, ways of conception and ways to build... I'm just lost.
And the MSDN in this release is so poor! 2/3 help files are missing. I've tryed to download the whole ISO stuff, but download is bugged here. Maybe with Firefox... I'll try.
Could you please give me a couple of links toward efficient french tutos for newbleubite?

I had a clear project for a sync module, I think it will wait a while. But when I'll be somewhat ready, i'll come back for tons of questions!

Thanks for this SDK, Martin, it is really a good stuff.

cheers

Yes it helps! Anything helps where I am. Well, let's have a drink...
Thanks Martin.
I'll come back later.

hello Vincent,

you are in ideal position to make a 'User module tutorial for C++ newbie'

Hi,

Just checking:
Are all the projects included in the CPP SDK supposed to build succesfully?

With UserDrawPad I get:

With TemplateModule I get:

UserPrototypeExample builds succesfully...

I thought I'd just ask before getting any deeper into this world

Thanks,

Hi Martin,

Thanks for the clarification. That'll get me started. Though I'm still a bit scared of it all

hi,

Normally, the result of compilation for all projects are in the bin folder, named like the project and with a '_D' for debug version and a '.usr' extension.

If it's not the case, you have to check in the project properties (for Release and Debug mode)  Configuration Properties->General->Output Directory it should be $(SolutionDir)bin. If it's something else, follow the path to find the file.

Those files should be copied or moved in the Usine folder install\Files\Modules\User to be visible in the Usine Browser->Modules->User and usable.

Let me know if you get it right.

no problems,

The Release and Debug folders of each projects are user for intermediates files in the compilation process (and there a few...).

I decided to 'centralize' the place where to found finales files.... in a bin folder. It will be more praticable when you'll have tones of users modules projects

Have fun
