SVN Code needs an update to the project settings

[mrhodes]

Hey,

Compiling the latest SVN code here and had a bunch of external ref errors.
They were all due to the guild class and NPC_AI class not being included in the project. I added these to my own workspace here, but someone will need to get this fixed in the svn code.

I'm using Visual C++ 2008 Pro and had to convert the World.sln file to a newer version.

I just successfully built the source code, so now I'll go test it out and play around with it a bit.

By the few posts you've made so far, I am suspicious you are not using the current code from our public SVN. "World.exe" is not the name of our exe, and hasn't been for nearly 2 years. World.sln (on SVN) is a VS2008 Pro solution, and should not require conversion. And lastly, there are no external reference errors in any of our compilings as long as your environment is setup according to the Wiki/Guides.

Please re-check what it is you are working with (SVN) before you waste your time on old code.

Actually John, Scat confirmed this last night.

Edit- let me be more specific- Scat confirmed something was up with these classes last night. He was wary about committing his proj without speaking to you first.

Newb question- Aren't Visual Studio 2008 Pro and Visual C++ 2008 Pro two different programs?

How can we go from having no problems with the project files to having a problem all of a sudden? If something needs to be fixed, definitely check it in. I am pretty sure I haven't checked in a World.vcproj myself ever, or recently. I did one for parser, but not World.

Sorry then, Mr H. I stand corrected... and baffled.

Hey,

It's ok.... I didn't mean to cause any confusion.... I do have the latest svn code.. I have been keeping it updated. I was wrong about converting the solution file.

And your right, it's not world.exe. But the solution file is world.sln and that is what I was referring to. anyway, no biggie. I did get it to compile after adding those two classes (Guild and NPC_AI) myself. The files for the classes were there, just not included in the project.

I still cannot log into my own server yet though. It seems like there is a problem logging into the zone server. I can log into TessEQ most times.

Just curious, what about my other posts suggested that I did not have the latest code ?

Thanks,

Michael

EDIT: I just deleted my project files and updated the code again, seems like the issue is fixed.... and it all compiled for me without a problem.

Just your mention of World.exe as a binary, then the conversion of World.sln. The original project was for 2003.NET, but that hasn't been the case for some time. Glad you got it worked out.

We'll solve your login issue next You'll need to post all your configs per the sticky that shows what info we need for troubleshooting.
