Hi Luigi,

I think you will require this additionally.

https://developer.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/downloads/wind ows-10-sdk

Thanks for the answer.
I installed it despite I checked it in the visual studio download.
Again it compiles but no exe. It stops at a .rc file processing.
I cannot find a rc.exe in my distro.
Where this file should be? Have you tried to compile a program with a .rc file?

Thanks,
Luigi

Hi Luigi,

Check your "build methods" settings in MSCxx method

Add in "PATH - executable directories" folder path for "Windows Kits" where rc.exe is located.

In my case it is
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\bin\x64"

Warm Regards

Deepak

Now it works! Very Happy

for some reason the search method does not work on my system and the rc.exe is located in
C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\bin\10.0.15063.0\x64

Thanks again!
Luigi

Hi Luigi,

I see the problem was solved already. That's good.

Just for reference, please find attached an image of my Visual Studio Build Tools setup. This was completely automatically detected with TheIDE and works (with .rc's too).

Best regards,

Tom

helped with MSBT2019 (VS Build Tools 2019) too. Auto-detected when first IDE Open. Thanks.
Though I wonder for the same reason:

The only problem is that I have not found any devenv.exe under Microsoft Visual Studio\2017.
However TheIDE seems to compile and debug

Hope, nothing changed! If you experienced some problems - please give your feedback here, but now I just leave everything as-is.
And myBM attached

Perhaps, to PATH : [i]C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\BuildTools\MSBuild\Current\Bin[\i] or any folder where VSBT was installed e.g. C:\VSBT\MSBuild\Current\Bin

p.s.
Happy 2023 New Year for everybody with best wishes in your Dev. path Wink
