[User Discussion] - [SOLVED] Error Building locally with Visual C++ and personal .h files

hello

1/ I had to change the bat file in ACS_Source to add the "(x86)" to the "Program Files" dir - then it started the compiler.
2/ there is a warning for unknown CL option which presumably causes the ensuing errors.
3/ does not recognize the .h files.
4/ throws an error at the end.

5/ everything works fine with the remote compiler

thanks --
regards

If you installed Visual Studio before you installed the Visual C++ Compiler in the Sierra Chart Analysis>>Build menu, then you need to uninstall Visual Studio, reinstall the Compiler in Sierra and then re-install Visual Studio. No editing of the bat file will be required. The Warnings can be suppressed with /W0 in the Additional Compiler Parameters field. Then do "Build with Visual C++ - Debug" and when it is working re-build with "Build with Visual C++ - Release".

I uninstalled and re-installed everything in all possible orders.
I think I have evidence of a problem: when .h files are used with VC

NOTE >>> I am only using SC codes here that comes with SC Installation. Nothing is mine <<<

solved - the problem was that with VC you dont need to specify all the (personal) .h files that are needed by the cpp -- you have to do that with the Remote compiler though.

Maybe a note somewhere would be beneficial. I have seen other userd falling in the same trap
