• Visual C++ VCMAME: compiles with VC2003, fails with VC2005

  I'm trying to build the MAME source using Visual C++ 2005. I'm using the VCMAME project files from http://www.vcmame.net/ . I first built the project in Visual Studio 2003, then opened the project in VC++ 2005 and rebuilt. I only had to make a few modifications to the project, like adding _CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE to silence a bunch of warnings. However, one of the source files (winalloc.c) implements their own memory handling functions so ...Show All

  VC++ 6.0 I can't seem to disable exception handling.  I have a try / catch block and whenever I hit my exception control goes to my catch(...) handler.

Oh, and yes;  as expected, when I compile with E.H. disabled I get a warning that my unwind semantics are not ...Show All

• SQL Server Setting Passwords In Connections Using Script Task

  I have a situation where I have to read an encrypted password from a table and set the password and userID for the connections. I wrote functions to retrieve the data from a table, decrypt the password and UserID, and set the connection string for the connection.
