| | At least post a selection of the errors, preferably starting with the first ones. Just saying "it gave me like 57 errors" doesn't give us much to go on. With errors the error message is the important thing, not the fact that you got the message. |

| This means that you don't have a function called WinMain anywhere...
...which means that either you chose the wrong project settings, or you don't have the function declared, or don't have the preprocessor definitions you need to make it realize it's compiling under Windows. |

I do have the function WinMain somewhere.
And I HAVE the right project settings, and the function is declared.
which preprocessor definitions do i need?
the ones i have are:
WIN32,_DEBUG,_WINDOWS,_MBCS
o yeah, i did find more than one, so i left onlt one of them, in comm.c
and when i compiled i got the error:
LINK : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _WinMain
now what? | | Top |

| I think the one in comm.c is the correct one. I don't see why SMAUG wants WinMain, it is a Unix (console) app. You need main, and it should be in comm.c.
As an example on this site is a file:
ftp://ftp.gammon.com.au/smaug/smaug1.4a_win_mxp_src.zip
I just unzipped that into a directory, opened the project file with MS VC++ and compiled. I got one warning and no errors.
My project settings are:
WIN32,_DEBUG,_CONSOLE,_MBCS
Note _CONSOLE instead of _WINDOWS.
