Allegro withMSVC++.NET
Author
This is from Game programming all in one 2nd ED.
#include <allegro.h>
int main(void)
{
// Initialize Allegro.
allegro_init();
// Set the resolution to 640 by 480 with SAFE autodetection.
set_gfx_mode(GFX_SAFE, 1280, 1024, 0, 0);
// Installing the keyboard handler.
install_keyboard();
// Printing text to the screen.
textout(screen, font, "Hello World!", 1, 1, 10);
textout(screen, font, "Press ESCape to quit.", 1, 12, 11);
// Looping until the ESCape key is pressed.
while(! key[KEY_ESC])
poll_keyboard(); // This shouldn't be necessary in Windows.
// Exit program.
allegro_exit();
return 0;
}
// Some Allegro magic to deal with WinMain().
END_OF_MAIN();
and it says
c:\Documents and Settings\K88soft\My Documents\Visual Studio Projects\HelloWorld\main.c fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'allegro.h': No such file or directory
I added the alleg.lib file with winmm.lib why won't it work
I think I may need to install SDK first but I'm not sure.
can anyone help my?
The header file is allegro.h. And your compiler can't find it.
Did you successfully (and fully) install Allegro?

to be honest I'm notsure if I installed it correctly.
I'm reading how to compile
the code in back of the book and it says I need a make.exe that suposedly comes with DevC++ but I don't want it to take over my MSVC++ and I just can't find this Make.exe by itself. there has to be an easier way of working with Allegro. I just can't find it [sad]

Well, according to the docs, you "make", and then "make install". The output you see is perfectly normal; not even an error.
But if it's still giving you problems, the precompiled binaries are right here. Maybe that will be easier.
