Build errors in Visual Studio 2008 Professional

Adam_Smith · January 22, 2011, 2:38am

Using VS2008 Professional, I have built SDL 1.3 dated (1/20/2010)
with no problems.

However, when I attempt to build an application that successfully
compiles/links successfully with SDL 1.2.14, I get a long list of warnings
and errors when building with SDL 1.3. (See below).

Just to eliminate the possibility of a corrupt project/solution file, I have
tried creating a new project from scratch, but it yields the same results.

Something in the #include files seems to be incompatible with VS2008.

Using VS2010 Express (with SDL 1.3 built with VS2010) works perfectly well.
But I would prefer not to migrate to VS2010 yet.

Thanks in advance.

those errors are concerning, and unfortunely I don’t use MSVC and thus can’t help.

However, I can tell you that SDL 1.3 uses a very different API from SDL1.2 and all SDL 1.2 compatibility functions are in SDL_compat.h instead of their normal headers.
See if that doesn’t fix most of your non-totally-bizarre errors.------------------------

The issue with SDL_atomic.h has been reported. http://bugzilla.libsdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1097

What errors are you getting when you comment it out?

commenting out #include <atomic.h> in sdl.h helps, but does not resolve everything.

I have a fix for this, attached. I’ll push it to the repository once we get
commit access worked out.On Fri, Jan 21, 2011 at 6:38 PM, adamvsmith wrote:
