mq2 compiling, need someone to double check me

Post by ddn » Tue Dec 09, 2003 4:00 pm

Good work on MQ, the tendons in my hands thank you.

Compiler: .NET 7.1 (Compiling at school.)

Double clicked on MQ2Auth.exe
Double clicked on macroquest2.dsw


(As of Tuesday, December 9, 3pm)
Worked great, but with a few errors I searched and searched and can't figure this out. I have taken a programming class in C a few semesters ago so I am famalir with what is going on no need to be gentle with me sirs.

Errors are as follows:
c:\Documents and Settings\ddminer\Desktop\mq\mq2telnet\Telnet.h(3): fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'string': No such file or directory

c:\Documents and Settings\ddminer\Desktop\mq\mq2telnet\Telnet.h(3): fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'string': No such file or directory

c:\Documents and Settings\ddminer\Desktop\mq\mq2telnet\Telnet.h(3): fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'string': No such file or directory

c:\Documents and Settings\ddminer\Desktop\mq\MQ2Irc\MQ2Irc.cpp(12): fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'list': No such file or directory

I don't know what I am doing wrong, or do I just ignore it as is? I click on MacroQuest2.exe in the release folder, pops into sys tray fine.

My question deals with what to do next. Correct me if I am wrong:
1. Zip "release" folder to take home (compiling at school)
2. Extract to C:MQ, execute MacroQuest2.exe (at home)
3. Enter EQ (I use EQW), type /filter macros all, /help macros, /macro follow.mac (assuming follow.mac is in the macros folder)


Is there anything I am missing, anything I am doing wrong, should be aware of, or is this flawless? Campus is 1 hour drive away from home and I don't really have the time to drive there, compile, drive back. Especially now that I'm on break till Jan 15.

Again, great work on MQ, very skilled programming here on the boards, too. Although it's not my major, nice to see the creativity here. Thanks again!

If you're not using the most recent version of winzip, or whatever other program you use, it wont make the subsequent folders. I dont know if you have seperate folders for each portion, but I know that I ran into this issue, if its any help.

Edit: In regards to your other question, you have to compile it on your home computer, thats what mq2auth.exe is for.

After I copy it to the directory at school, then I execute the .sln again, and take the release directory back home to run MQ2, yes?

Yeah. Copy to the computer at school, double click the .sln file. Click Build Solution, then take the exe, dll, ini, and txt files from the Release directory home with you.

I downloaded MQ 2 and searched the forums for what to do. I get the same error as was posted above. Im sure its something im forgettingbut i went ahead and made sure my winzip was uptodate i am running a win xp home edition and am compiling it with visual c++. after trying to open macroquest2.dsw after running the MQ2Auth.exe.

After opening macroquest2.dsw i click build then batch build... i get this:



******EDIT*******

Thanks for the help. a few people helped me out. it seems its always the small stuff that gets me =P

on winzip i needed to click extract instead of my ussual crtl a ctrl v.

thanks again !
