The old Visual C++ Express Beta Directories problem

The old Visual C++ Express Beta Directories problem

• VFP Developer

  Hi and thanks for the reply.
  
  In general, the problem is the inability to specify include directories, which is a well known problem. However, the recommended workaround does not seem to be working for me as I mentioned in the original post.
  
  Specifically, at the moment this means I can`t build any projects using DirectX because the header files are not found.
  
  Is the commercial version of Visual C++ Express still due for release this month
  
  Thanks.

  Yes, the final bits of VS2005 is released at http://www.microsoft.com/events/2005launchevents/default.mspx.
  
  One way to include certain directories is to directly use the /I compiler option to point to any directory you wish.
  
  Hope this helps!
