Panda with dev cpp

C++ coding using Panda3D
1

Is it possible to use panda with dev c++ ?

2

If it can interface to the MSVC 2008 compiler, yes.

I’m not so sure about that, I believe I read somewhere that it only works with the Cygwin and MinGW compilers.

What should I do to get panda working on visual studio 2008 express ? When I try to compile simplest program from the manual I get this:

1>d:\program files\microsoft sdks\windows\v6.1\include\winnt.h(283) : error C2146: syntax error : missing ';' before identifier 'PVOID64'
1>d:\program files\microsoft sdks\windows\v6.1\include\winnt.h(283) : error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int

Hm, does it help if you uninstall that version of the Windows SDK and install this one instead:
microsoft.com/downloads/deta … laylang=en

i had that same issue

try adding
D:\Panda3D-1.6.2\python\include
D:\Panda3D-1.6.2\python\Lib
and
D:\Panda3D-1.6.2\python\libs

only problem is, now i get a linker error:
1>LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file ‘libpandaexpress.lib’

:frowning:

8

That means you need to add D:\Panda3D-1.6.2\lib as well.

9

i did

:frowning:

10

To the linker path? Maybe you accidentally used the include path?

11

The problem remains.

Open your project in devcpp
click right button go to properties → settings
and you’ll get link editor and a button to add files
click and add all .lib of panda to your project
this should fix the link error
