I'm provided with this engine thing written in VC6, which compiles fine under VC6 but gives a huge number of errors with newer versions of compilers. I need to write a GUI which uses the engine, but GDI+ is not supported in VC++6. So I have the following options: 1. port the VC++6 code to Visual Studio 2005 2. tweak things and get GDI+ to work with VC++6 3. use the old GDI API (which I don't know how to use) Any suggestions on which way may be easier? thanks! |

Move it to VS 2005 or gcc. VC++ 6 has notoriously bad library support. |

thanks for the reply md. haha I've decided to cheat: I'm making the engine dump data to a text file and just query that from my program. |
