The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Building Scintilla - BaseTsd.h doesn't exist

Asked by pD_EO in C++ Programming Language

Tags: visual

Hey guys,

I'm trying to build Scintilla, I have download the files from the website, extracted it, opened the read me file which tells me too make the file...

*** Windows version ***

A C++ compiler is required. Visual Studio .NET 2003 is the development system
used for most development although Mingw32 3.1 and Borland C++ are also
supported.
For older versions of Borland make such as version 5.02, add the -l option.

To build Scintilla, make in the scintilla/win32 directory
            cd scintilla\win32
GCC:            mingw32-make
VS .NET:      nmake -f scintilla.mak
VC++ 6:      nmake -f scintilla_vc6.mak
Borland:       make -fscintilla.mak
            cd ..\..

I opened the Visual Studio Command Prompt, navigated to the scintilla/win32 directory as specified.  I entered...

nmake -f scintilla.mak

...but I just get errors, I can't seem to build it.

The errors I get are...

cl -Zi -TP -W4 -Zc:forScope -Zc:wchar_t -D_CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE=1 -O1 -MT -DNDEBUG
-GL -I../include -I../src -c -Fo.\CallTip.obj ..\src\CallTip.cxx
Microsoft (R) 32-bit C/C++ Optimizing Compiler Version 14.00.50727.762 for 80x86
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation.  All rights reserved.

CallTip.cxx
C:\Documents and Settings\NAME\Desktop\scintilla\include\Scintilla.h(29) : fatal error C1083:
 Cannot open include file: 'BaseTsd.h': No such file or directory
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\BIN\cl.EXE"' : return code '0x2'
Stop.

I had a look for BaseTsd.h on the drive, but it doesn't exist.

Any ideas?

Thanks
