Need help finding vclibs package

[Mazza101]

Hey guys,

I'm having some problems finding the latest vclibs package and I'm hoping that someone will be able to give me a link to it :)

Thanks!

I'm in the same boat...
want to do some AI work and want to compile Spring from scratch, but all links to vclibs seem to be dead ends.

Help?

It sounds like you're looking for the "Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (x86)". That package installs runtime components of Visual C++ Libraries required to run applications developed with Visual C++ on a computer that does not have Visual C++ 2005 installed.

Visual Studio re-distributable packages can found at http://www.microsoft.com. Search for "Redistributable Package" and the search engine should reply with the various re-distributable packages that are available.

No he talks about the package with libraries required to build spring in Visual Studio.

I have put on my to do list to search for them in my backups, not even sure I had latest ones though, I don't use Visual Studio ATM to develop spring stuff.

Should still work for vs 2005. No one ever build a vclibs package for 2008 though.

I wonder why the wiki link was changed to point to wolfgame.org, is there something wrong with the original vc8libs?

I recall something was / had to be updated (possible boost?), but if it works then all is fine I suppose

Code: Select all

Unable to find the requested Boost libraries.

  Boost version: 1.33.1

  Boost include path: P:/vc2UPD/spring_C_AI_interface/vclibs/Boost/include

  Detected version of Boost is too old.  Requested version was 1.34 (or
  newer).

am trying to compile with vs now.. maybe i can find the error this way...
so tobi, there is a problem with boost. if i am in the mood once, i may compile the latest boost. though i would be happy if someone else could.
