problem getting IVF compiler running

[intel_ip]

I purchased the latest version of IVF compiler for Windows 8 last week, having already checked out the trial version a couple of months ago.  I believe I managed to download the code OK and even the installation seemed to go well, except at the very end when it asks me to hit ‘finish’, it says that I would be sent to the ‘start page’, but wasn’t.  I am having problems running the IVF compiler – I’m stuck on the page which is included in the attachment.  I have also attached some correspondence showing proof o f purchase and product serial #.  I find I cannot go any further as I do not know my license code even though a file containing that info was attached.  The start page also mentions about my license having already expired.   I am assuming that the product I have just purchased will allow me to do exactly what I had been doing before when operating on Windows 7 – correct?

I would appreciate if you could let me know what I am missing in getting IVF compiler running – thanks.

I just found the include files in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.1\Include directory (not Program Files (x86).  I then modified the include section as shown below

$(IFortInstallDir)compiler\include
$(IFortInstallDir)compiler\include\ia32
$(IFortInstallDir)mkl\include
$(VCInstallDir)atlmfc\include
$(VCInstallDir)include
$C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.1A\Include
$(FrameworkSDKDir)include

but I got the same error message as before when compiling the resource file, not being able to open 'prsht.h' file even though it is present in the include directory.

Did you take out the line for $(WindowsSDKDIr)\include ? I am not sure why all those C .h files are being included in a .rc.

Yes, I deleted that include.  What is included in the include section is exactly what you see above.

The lines below are the first lines of the resource file for compilation:

// Generated by ResEdit 1.5.4

#include <winres.h>

}

The following lines are the output after the resource file failed to compile

Compiling resources...

opticsoft.rc

opticsoft - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)

If you think it useful I can include the complete resource file.

I do have a number of Microsoft Visual Studio applications, blank, 8.0, 9.0, 10.0 and 12.0 in both the c:\program files\ and c:\program files (x86)\ I thought I had removed them with the uninstall feature.  Which should I keep as it appears from the compilation error that it was looking into the 10.0 version?

Thanks for the help.

Hi Steve: I spent quite some time playing around with this and that trying o get the IVF compiler working and finally managed to get some luck when I decided to copy and paste the actual address of the include file from its directory location to the include box instead of typing it in.  Not sure why this worked unless there are some hidden characters present as the lines containing the include statements appeared exactly the same.  Anyway I do have the IVF compiler working now.

Thanks for your help. Cheers, Ian

Glad to hear it.
