hi!!
how can i configure source code to visual studio 2008?
(must i configure SDL,glew,boost..etc separately?????)
:?
thanks!!!

I have to do it by yourself. MSVC is not supported.

Here are the steps I went through to compile it under MSVC2010:

Quote:1. boost-1.44
- Download boost_1_44_0.7z
- Extract boost into vdrift\tools\win\msvc\include
- For VC100 download from http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/
libboost_date_time-vc100-mt-1_44.zip
libboost_filesystem-vc100-mt-1_44.zip
libboost_iostreams-vc100-mt-1_44.zip
libboost_prg_exec_monitor-vc100-mt-1_44.zip
libboost_program_options-vc100-mt-1_44.zip
libboost_regex-vc100-mt-1_44.zip
libboost_serialization-vc100-mt-1_44.zip
libboost_signals-vc100-mt-1_44.zip
libboost_system-vc100-mt-1_44.zip
libboost_thread-vc100-mt-1_44.zip
- Extract into into vdrift\tools\win\msvc\lib

2. asio-1.4.5
- Download from http://sourceforge.net/projects/asio/files/
- Copy include into vdrift\tools\win\msvc

3. glew-1.5.6
- Download glew-1.5.6-win32.zip from http://glew.sourceforge.net
- Copy lib, include into vdrift\tools\win\msvc

4. SDL-devel-1.2.14
- Download SDL-devel-1.2.14-VC8.zip from http://www.libsdl.org/download-1.2.php
- Copy lib into vdrift\tools\win\msvc, and headers into vdrift\tools\win\msvc\include\SDL

5. SDL_image-1.2.10
- Download SDL_image-devel-1.2.10-VC.zip from http://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_image/
- Copy lib into vdrift\tools\win\msvc and header into vdrift\tools\win\msvc\include\SDL

6. SDL_gfx-2.0.22
- Download SDL_gfx-2.0.22.tar.gz from http://www.ferzkopp.net/joomla/software-.../19-sdlgfx
- Set SDL include\lib paths in project properties
- Build Release|Win32
- Copy SDL_gfx.lib, SDL_gfx.dll into vdrift\tools\win\msvc\lib and headers into vdrift\tools\win\msvc\include\SDL

7. libogg-1.2.0
- Download libogg-1.2.0.zip from http://xiph.org/downloads/
- VC100: Remove mobile targets from vcproj before conversion.
- Build Release|Win32
- Copy libogg.dll, libogg.lib into vdrift\tools\win\msvc\lib and include into vdrift\tools\win\msvc

8. libvorbis-1.3.1
- Download libvorbis-1.3.1.zip from http://xiph.org/downloads/
- VC100: Remove mobile targets from vcproj before conversion.
- In libogg.vsprops set LIBOGG_VERSION to "1.2.0"
- Build Release|Win32
- Copy libogg.dll, libvorbis.lib, libvobis.dll into vdrift\tools\win\msvc\lib and include into vdrift\tools\win\msvc

9. libcurl-7.21.4
- Download curl-7.21.4.zip from http://curl.haxx.se/download.html
- Build DLL Release|Win32
- Copy libcurl.dll and libcurl_imp.lib into vdrift\tools\win\msvc\lib and include\curl into vdrift\tools\win\msvc\include

10. Create a project in vdrift\tools\win\msvc

11. Compile\AdditionalIncludeDirectories
include;..\..\..\src;..\..\..\include;..\..\..\bullet

12. Link\AdditionalDependencies
opengl32.lib;glu32.lib;glew32.lib;SDLmain.lib;SDL.lib;SDL_image.lib;SDL_gfx.lib;libvorbisfile.lib;libcurl_imp.lib

13. Look for variable length arrays, replace them by new/delete

14. Look for <tr1/...> includes, add #ifdef _MSC_VER guards to include <...> instead

15. Define __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ where needed
#if _MSC_VER
#define __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ __FUNCSIG__
#endif

Please feel free to share your setup steps if you make it compile in visual studio 2008.

thanks!! that was helpful!!!!!!!
