Visual Studio 2010... & Crafty

makefile.xp for Crafty gives me this:

Did something change with the makefiles?
I don't see why it's doing this...??

Hi Joshua,

Compiles correctly with Msvc 2005.
Only difference in output I see is the link-time code generation switch which is missing from yours.

I've tried MSV2008 also... same thing.

Still with /LTCG

link /LTCG crafty.obj egtb.obj /out:crafty.exe
./link: extra operand `egtb.obj'
Try `./link --help' for more information.

Stop.

C:\Crafty>

Strange.

Thanks, I'll dig around for 2005...

Common Issues/Bugs/Glitches And Solutions 
Applies to Visual C++ 2005 Express: 

If you run into an issue when running develop.py similar to this: 

1>Linking...
1>link: extra operand `/ERRORREPORT:QUEUE'
1>Try `link --help' for more information.
1>Project : error PRJ0002 : Error result 1 returned from 'C:\cygwin\bin\link.exe'.

You may have not configured Visual Studio properly. The articles in this wiki in regards to the setup of executable paths do not specify an order or priority, but you must make sure that the CYGWIN executable path is set lower in the list than the VC++ paths, otherwise develop.py winds up executing the CygWin Link.exe which won't work.

This issue has also been seen when using the Windows Command Prompt instead of the command prompt within VC++ (Visual Studio 2010?). 

Another issue came up, where accessing crafty.obj was denied. This was simply solved by running the VC Command Line Tool -> Run as Administrator
