VS2005 SP1 and missing afxres.h

[Raistmer]

Thanx for detailed giude nstalled TortouseSVN (it needs 64-bit version to work with 64-explorer %) ) will become familiar with it a little and check out
P.S. seti betta has invalid certificate by now. Think it's ok to use but...

[Raistmer]

Maybe it' worth to start new thread for beta 6 build?
Anyway there are a ot of  warnings about type conversion and unreferenced variable and 5 errors:
d:\btr\seti6\seti_boinc\client\analyzefuncs.cpp(51) : error C2146: syntax error : missing ';' before identifier 'PACKAGE_VERSION'
d:\btr\seti6\seti_boinc\client\analyzefuncs.cpp(51) : error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before 'string'
d:\btr\seti6\seti_boinc\client\analyzefuncs.cpp(51) : error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int
----FFTW----
d:\btr\seti6\seti_boinc\client\analyzefuncs.cpp(293) : error C2146: syntax error : missing ')' before identifier 'PACKAGE_VERSION'

Hi Raistmer, I have several Threads going in prerelease applications area .... I will paste important stuff here that you might need .... maybe ask Gecko_R7 about possibility of Access ?  Much more has happened in the same thread discussions, as Joe has chipped in with helpful stuff too, confirming the GFX is actually okay and some other details...

From my first trys in a thread in discussion with Heinz....
---------------------------

Well I did sleep I promise  , But here is new information... Much easier to use Eric's Tagged 6.00 beta as baseline, It works with boinc current Head, but is a tad cranky on some minor issues (detailed below):

Test-WU1 result "Strongly Similar" with default 515 result:
    -nographics 23Mins 09 secs---> about the same execution time as the last,  more troublesome build (Was Incorrect Branch!). 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Compiler Environment: MSVS2005wSP1
Sources: [SaH 6.00beta (SVN tagged, rev 95) , Boinc (SVN trunk,rev 14544)]
(Internalay marked as something like 6.1.6? must check that)
Build Configuration: Std "Release"
Added Preprocessor directives: USE_MMX on seti_boinc project only.
Additional project configuration: Multiple Include Directory adjustments, esp. libgraphics & seti_graphics projects
Using FFTW Dll.
Resulting executable size 548kb (  pretty small... )

There are 9 projects now in the stock source:
GLUT
IMAGE_LIBS
JPEGLIB
LIBBOINC
LIBBOINCAPI
LIBGRAPHICS2
SETIGRAPHICS
SETIBOINCDB
SET_BOINC

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Issues adjusted for Build: (Now minor   , looking for better ways, Though this is manageable IMO,  I think this might be a useful Start build to branch our optimizations from)
win-sah_config.h (361)
- CUSTOM_STRING definition problematic: replaced with hard string

seti_boinc_private.rc (11)
- Minor Manifest Issue : commented out line for now (not best solution)

analyzeFuncs.cpp (51)
- CUSTOM_STRING definition problematic: replaced with hard string

boinc_api.h
(128) Added missing extern declarations for thread/process controls:
    extern void boinc_exit(int);
    extern int suspend_activities(void);
    extern int restore_activities(void);

boinc_api.C - adjusted prototypes (removing "static:) and function headers for
   int suspend_activities();
   int resume_activities();
   void boinc_exit(int); left them static, commented out the 3 Redundant Function prototypes from this file(now externs in .h )

graphics_impl.h(32):
 - Changed set_worker_timer_hook to start_timer_thread_hook (alternative would mean altering .C file in several places, This was easiest)

No problem.  Should have that sorted shortly.
