Extension compiling errors

[LWFX]

I am using Visual Studio 08, follow the JGED tutorial and I got 93 compiling errors. Im not gonna post em all but heres a few below. Was wondering if the converting from VC6 to 08 might have been screwed or what, cause I have no idea.

RickyRombo had the same problem. Here's the solution.

Looki, are you sure it's not your version that's ancient? Everyone seems to still use SUB_START, SUB_END, etc.

[James]

I suspect some extension developers (like myself and Looki) might have a newer version than the current publicly available one, adding to the confusion!

Thanks for the replies. Did a few Find and Replaces and now only have 5 errors! so I'm gettin somewhere. also had to change a strdup() to _strdup() in the Props.h. So now all I have to fix is this I guess O_ o

Show the 25 first lines of your Main.cpp ?

[LWFX]

Here's some of my Main.cpp
[color:#666666]#include "common.h"
int StoredNumber = 0

// ================================================== ==========================
//
// CONDITIONS
//
// ================================================== ==========================

CONDITION(
/* ID */ 0,
/* Name */ "%o: String %0 has too many characters?",
/* Flags */ EVFLAGS_ALWAYS|EVFLAGS_NOTABLE,
/* Params */ (1,PARAM_NUMBER,"First number")
) {
char * str = (char *)Param(TYPE_STRING);
return strlen(str) > 10;

}


C
// ================================================== ==========================
//
// ACTIONS
//
// ================================================== ==========================


ACTION(
/* ID */ 0,
/* Name */ "Comment: %0",
/* Flags */ 0,
/* Params */ (1, PARAM_EXPSTRING,"Text of Comment")
) {

}

ACTION(
/* ID */ 1,
/* Name */ "Set Stored Number to %0",
/* Flags */ 0,
/* Params */ (1, PARAM_NUMBER,"Number")
) {
StoredNumber = Param(TYPE_INT);
}[/color]

[Looki]

It has to be
int StoredNumber = 0;

You shouldn't touch RSDK at all if you don't even know how to separate statements in c++.

Besides: You shouldn't define StoredNumber outside of the function, and the condition won't work, it gets a number, but reads a string, that means it expects you to enter a memory address to a string.

[Jaffob]

Add a semicolon to the end of line 2, and delete the "C" before the line of comments for the actions section.

[LWFX]

I know how to separate statements, but I was wondering if it was something unique? because when I add a semicolon it gives me a different error.

I'll just try re-installing VS since it's been goin crazy lately.
