heya!

i recently downloaded visual studio 2008 express edition, dark gdk and the directx sdk and currently write on my first project.

everything works and compiles perfectly, but now i want to use arrays where i can add and remove data dynamically. i tried to use std::vector, but unfortunately i receive a few linker errors where i can't build my project any longer.

my questions:
- how should i set up visual studio to make a simple std::vector working?
- are there already any definitions of something comparable to std::vector implemented in the dark gdk?

any suggestions and help would be awesome!

Search this forum for linker errors. I'm sure I've seen a post about that.

Hats off to you for doing it the correct way.

(I wrote my own classes to avoid the dependancy issue all together...I used plain vanilla C++ and now am quite happy with my home brew. I just posted that class in another thread today so if you want it look for it or email me or something - its also here: http://code.google.com/p/darkgdkoop/

Good Luck - Please post any successes you have getting the stdlib linked!

Apart from the basic include and namespace statements:



ensure the following are set in the project properties:

Configuration Properties - C++ - Code Generation is set to Multi-Threaded (/MT) both in Debug mode and Release mode. There are no debug libraries for DarkGDK and attempting to link other libraries in Debug mode will produce linker errors as a result if this setting is left as /MTd.

Configuration Properties - Linker - Input - Ignore Specific Library is set to: libcmtd, msvcrt, atls

If these are set then you should have no further problems using Standard Library functions and templates.

No matter how good your code is, someone will improve on it
