malloc.h is not an error, it is a header file which contains the prototype of the malloc function. You may have to give more useful informations if you want helpful answers. For example, the output console may contain some relevant facts about what is happening during the compilation process.

Here is my console compiling issue on visual studio 2010 but I don't have this issue on visual studio 2008 with the malloc.h so how do I fix this...

1>------ Build started: Project: idlib, Configuration: Release Win32 ------
1> Base64.cpp
1>e:\doom 3 source 2010\src\idlib\precompiled.h(47): fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'malloc.h': No such file or directory
2>------ Build started: Project: Game, Configuration: Release Win32 ------

Solution 1

Apparently malloc.h header has been replaced in VS 2010.
You could try replacing

C++

#include <malloc.h>

with

C++

#include <stdlib.h>

in your source code, and see if that works.

Be sure to install all service packs of the Visual Studio 2008, because some bug fixes and enhancements are in it.

Why dont you use the latest version of Visual Studio?

Tip: read the complete error message and than thin about it and google for it. When you ask again provide the full error message in the question.
