I have suddenly lost access to the list of warnings and errors when I build applications with Visual C++ 2010 Express. This seems to be occurring with all the applications. How do I recover the this feature? I only get a message "build complete" or "build failed"

Is the "Error List" panel still there without showing errors, or is it gone?

Sir Roland 1-Feb-15 20:07pm

There is no error list

Try to repair VS install.

I have repaired Visual Studio and Visual C++. No joy.

Solution 1

Check the error and warnings settings of your project. Or have you included some headers which supress warnings. Search for "#pragma warning" tokens

How do I access the error and warnings settings? I didn't see them when I looked at properties. I do have some #pragma tokens. I'll try turning them off. Since I am suddenly seeing the problem when I rebuild inactive projects, it seems it would be associated with the Visual Studio set-up.

I am using Visual C++ 2010 Express. Being aware of that may affect suggestions of solutions
