Forums » Prof-UIS Tech Support » Building with VS2008 produces 'error C2065: 'CX_BORDER' : undeclared identifier' Collapse All

I just purchased and downloaded Prof-UIS 2.82.  When I try to build it using VS2008 Unicode Debug build on Windows XP SP2, I receive the following errors.  I receive the same errors for ExtScrollWnd.cpp and ExtSplitterWnd.cpp.  If I build using VS2005, the problem does not happen.  I have VS2005 and VS2008 on the same machine.


I downloaded the package from the Installer link under ’Full Library’.


I noticed these constants were defined as 1 in the module ExtToolControlBar.cpp, so I added the same constants to the other modules and it builds.  Why is this happening, what are the correct values for these contants?  I would rather use the source code as it is, rather than modify it to make it work???

This problem is solved in v.2.83 which will be released soon.

The problem occurs when you install the MFC update to VS2008.  CX_BORDER and CY_BORDER  are no longer defined in the MFC include files.  I simply added the following lines to the ExtMfcDef.h file:


#undef CX_BORDER

#undef CY_BORDER

#define CX_BORDER 1

#define CY_BORDER 1

We have Visual Studio 2008 without update and there these constants are present. They are defined in the following file: “.\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\atlmfc\src\mfc\afximpl.h". We will install the update and look there. Anyway your fix is applicable. We are going to add some new constants which should replace these.

Thank you for your choice. The CX_BORDER and CY_BORDER constants are defined in MFC and used in old style toolbars. We have all the versions of Visual C++ starting from 6.0 and up to 2008 installed on our development computers (excepting Visual Studio .NET 2002 on x64 machines where it cannot be installed) and we have never come across this problem. We believe it may have something to do with your computer. Did you install any additional software integrated with Visual Studio 2008 on your computer? Some service pack? Could you post the list of Include folders that you can find in the Visual Studio 2008 settings?

We are primarily interested in the grid control from your package.  As long as the problem does not affect the grid control, we are OK with it.  It would be nice to be able to cleanly compile it, without having to modify the source.  It may have something to do with the new MFC 2008 feature pack we installed.  This is what is listed last in the copy info information.


Thanks.
