You can download the current (5.5) sources here and then follow this step by step example on building it. I would also suggest … Read more
Unusual requirement. But it can be done. Add a new project to your solution, use the Visual C++ > General > Makefile Project template. Set its NMake > Build Command Line setting to the commands you want to execute. Use Project > Project Dependencies to make all other projects depend on it.
In your project file : <Compile Include=”FileA.cs”/> <Compile Include=”FileA.xml”> <DependentUpon>FileA.cs</DependentUpon> </Compile> Or you could use Group Items command of VSCommands 2010 extension. Edit: Just in case your file is in a folder, don’t include the folder name in DependentUpon tag. For example if your file is in Helpers folder: <Compile Include=”Helpers\FileA.cs”/> <Compile Include=”Helpers\FileA.xml”> <DependentUpon>FileA.cs</DependentUpon> </Compile>
Create the project. Add one file as Content. Unload the project and edit the *proj file manually. <ItemGroup> <Content Include=”myfolder**\*.dll**”> <CopyToOutputDirectory>PreserveNewest</CopyToOutputDirectory> </Content> </ItemGroup> And then in the content-ItemGroup I would replace that singe file with some MsBuild wildcard expression, *.dll, or whatever.
There is no GCC plugin for Visual Studio as the one for example for Intel C++, which allows Intel’s compiler to be used as a drop-in replacement for Visual C++. You can use Makefile projects which allows you to use any external tool you like (make, SCons, jam, whatever) to do your build. If you … Read more

This was a case of one of the sub-installers getting stuck during the install and never completing. Unfortunately when this happens, it looks like the master installer never times out the operation. The trick is to open up the Task Manager in detail mode, and look for a sub-installer process that is showing 0% CPU … Read more

The compilers can be used from command line (or makefiles) just like any other compilers. The main things you need to take care of are the INCLUDE and LIB environment variables, and PATH. If you’re running from cmd.exe, you can just run this .bat to set the environment: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat If you’re … Read more
Thanks to those who suggested Resharper. This gives me another reason to love it even more. Just to be specific about where this lives – JetBrains call it CamelHumps (cute) and you can switch it on using the menu: Resharper -> Options -> Environment -> Editor -> Editor Behavior -> Use CamelHumps … in older … Read more
