Problem Compiling in Visual C++

[minorgod]

After all the problems I've had with the linux source, I'm trying it on Windows to see if I have similar problems. I set up everything according to directions in the other threads, but when I compile I get the following errors:

I can't find the dllapi.h file anywhere and I'm assuming it's a Microsoft include file. Any ideas?

It is part of metamod. Try using the metamod sources.

Also, make sure you have the Half-life SDK (you need it, too).

Ahhh...I gotcha. The instructions posted in the Visual Studio setup thread are slightly wrong then. If you use the "getstarted.zip" file and follow the directions, you need to set the metamod path in Visual Studio to be RealBot\metamod-1.17\metamod instead of RealBot\metamod-1.17\ or RealBot\metamod as the instructions suggest. Now I'm just getting the error:

WINDOWS.H already included. MFC apps must not #include <windows.h>

but based on other posts, I think I just need to rearrange the order of my include paths in the Visual Studio config to fix that.

Guess not. Can't seem to get rid of that last compiling error.

yeah, It solved the problem in this post http://forums.bots-united.com/showth...?t=1827&page=2

:o Thanks. I thought I had tried that already, but I had missed one of the include files so only two of the three MS includes were below the realbot includes. I fixed it and it finally compiled. Yay! Now I don't feel like I wasted an entire Sunday.
