Visual C++ .NET standard 2003
-
Hi all, If i were to buy Visual C++ .NET standard 2003, i understand its compiler does not optimize. Does anyone know if i can use the compiler and linker Microsoft supplies for free download at Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit 2003[^] ,that supposedly is the optimizing compiler and linker that ships with Visual Studio .NET 2003 Professional, with just Visual C++ .NET standard 2003? Or does will it not work with the IDE or does the IDE not allow it? Slaru

I have done so, and have had no complaints from the IDE. Here is how I did it: 1. Install both Visual C++ .NET Standard and Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit 2003 unto your machine (if not already done). 2. Then go to: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit 2003\bin" (drive letter may be different on your machine depending on your system's config). 3. Copy the files at that location and then paste them to: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7\bin" and allow them to overwrite the "standard" files. 4. Just in case the IDE might act up (which it shouldn't) before pasting the files into your standard edition's bin folder, create a temporary directory and paste all files from the "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7\bin" into it just in case things might not go right (just as a precaution to keep from having to re-install VC.NET all over again in case something bad happens). That should do it. It worked for me. Good luck with your programming! Happy Programming and God Bless! Internet::WWW::CodeProject::bneacetp

Thanks for your input and tutorial. I havent bought Visual C++ .NET standard 2003 yet, but I think I will now. Thanks.
Glad to help. If you go to Amazon.com, you should be able to buy it for less than Microsoft's $109. Happy Programming and God Bless! Internet::WWW::CodeProject::bneacetp
