VS2010

Hi all,

Just upgraded from VS 2005 to VS 2010 (Brave or stupid?). It is an unmanaged MFC project. I am working under Windows 7 / 64.

After a few small corrections in my code I am facing the following:

1) The project compiles and runs OK (it seems so)
2) To get it to compile / link I was forced to point the VC Dircetories to the Visual Studio 8 Folders under program files

Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\atlmfc\lib and the same for Include

Any attempt to point to the 10.0 version produced a whole bunch of errors and unresolved externals, so I gave up but I don't like being linked backwards.

3) The more annoying problem is with the Resource editor. I open a dialog and right click to "Add Variable" to a button, but nothing happens.
It does bring up the expected dialog if I try doing that through the Class list (right click in the class and Add Variable works)

Any suggestions?

Cheers
Alex

You can not mix VS2010 with VS2008 include or link libraries. This is a grand mistake that will result in failure and mysterious behavior even if you think that something is working.

I would not waste my time with any problems related to this.

The VS2010 compiler needs to be used with the VS2010 include files, link libraries and runtime.

Period.

Yes I agree with you, but when I set it up to point to 10.0 it results in the following errors:
