Resources with VC++ 2005 beta
Hi. Im having a little problem when compiling if I try to use rc files in the beta of VC++ 2005 Express edition. Getting an error like this.
Compiling resources...
.\Resource.h(5) : fatal error RC1004: unexpected end of file found
I think this is probibly because I need a resource editor/compiler. If thats the case could someone tell me of one I could dl and get working with VC++? If not here is my Resource.h. Maybe someone can tell me whats causing the error?
Hi, I'm not sure if vc2005 supports resource files yet? If you have started a project in an old version then you can use the resource, but I don't think you can make. I don't have any evidence for this except I tried doing one but it wouldn't (or I couldn't).
*sighs* Wish there was some way to get it to compile with resources. :/ My one book on game programing uses them quite reguarly. >_<
Could someone tell me if I used a seperate program to compile the resource file would that work?
OK, firstly VC++ 2005 Express definitely DOES allow resource files to be used - mine uses them without any problem. What it doesnt allow is for VISUAL creation of the file, but if you are writing it by hand that is fine.
Have you just for the resource.h file? Or do you also have a .rc file? Could you post the code for both please, and will try and help.

I know this is somewhat... unrelated, but looking at your code,
are you reading the book 'Beggining Game Programming' by Michael Morrison, or perhaps the older edition, 'Teach Yourself Game Programming in 24 hours'?

Acctualy I am. I got the 24 hours book cheap. Does that make a difference? Well anyway here be the code in the rc file.
EDIT: Ive looked up the error and its something to do with not having line feed and carriage return characters? Oo And when I decide to add a line to my Resouce.h I get these errors instead.

Is there a reason I have to keep making topics over and over till I finnaly get an answer? >_< Did I do something wrong?
You haven't defined a WndProc function. That's what that error is.
No, but that's getting dangerously close. Just be patient and you'll get help here :)
