OGRE builds under VC7, thanks to help from many people on the forums and changes made by cearny during my absence based on these recommendations.
I’ve now built it myself after making a couple of final tweaks, and must admit to liking the new VC7 interface. However I will be maintaining compatibility with VC6 for the forseeable future since I realise not everybody upgrades, and besides I have learned to be a little cautious about the stability of new compilers. However, VC7 .sln and .vcproj files are now in CVS and will be kept in sync with the VC6 .dsw and .dsp files. Because VC6 files can be converted to VC7 but not vice versa, the .dsps will be my ‘master’ copies anyway.
If you have any comments, recommendations, experiences with VC7, please pass them on in the Forums (see the link on the right).
