Gnuplot experts or anyone who is willing to help me - I have explained what I have done in very simple words and in a detailed manner. Thanks for your time and patience in advance.
My aim is to develop a new feature in Gnuplot by adding a new terminal to it. I did the following steps in the order mentioned
I formatted my system and reinstalled Windows 7. (no antivirus installed)
Installed Visual Studio 2008
Downloaded the source code of Gnuplot
Now, am supposed to set up the compiling environment for Gnuplot in Windows. So, I did the following steps as per the instructions in "README" and "INSTALL" files in the source code package.
Opened up Visual Studio 2008 Command Prompt
changed directory to the "src" folder in the source code
Then I ran the nmake tool (the make tool meant for Visual Studio) using the file makefile.nt (which is for Windows)
nmake -f C:\Users.........\config\makefile.nt
It compiled successfully and gave the wgnuplot.exe and gnuplot.exe files as output. Also the manifest files were created. (Note: I have not changed any piece of code from the original source code package)
When I tried to open the exe file generated from the compilation, it threw me this error
The program can't start because MSVCR90.DLL is missing from your computer. Try re-installing the program to fix this problem.
This MSVCR90.dll should be installed already when Visual Studio was installed. I checked the C:\Windows\winsxs\x86_microsoft.vc90... folder and the MSVCR90.DLL was alread there. Then, I tried 2 things to solve this -
Anything to do with PATH variable? I made the PATH variable point to that directory. It threw me a new error that says
Microsoft Visual C++ Library. Run time error. R6034. Here is the detailed picture of the error
So, I reset my path variable back to the old value and followed the steps in THIS FORUM POST to fix the missing dll problem by copying the dll files to the C:\Windows\system32 folder. Again it threw me the same run time error
AM STUCK AT THIS POINT. Please advise me on how to rectify this
problem. THANKS A MILLION :) Advance thanks to you :)
Is there any reason you need to use VS2008?
If not I'd recommend to use the current VC release.
Your problem looks like some sort of version mismatch/incompablilty issue to me ...

This is picture of my screen: This error shows up when I enter #include <stdio.h>to begin my program. I'm not sure how to fix this. Every file in Visual Studio Code is now having this issue.
I use gcc. gcc -o outputname filename.c and using C/C++ IntelliSense, debugging, and code browsing extension by Microsoft.
As you didn't explain the question well.
I think that there is a macro in the build options that is not defined so it gets inserted into the build command as a blank string. Does your project use some macros in the build options maybe something for 55x CSL directory?
If so make sure to define these macros on the macro tab of the build options dialog.
Various things may contribute to this error:
unclosed quotes in preprocessor definitions, macros or even c_cpp_properties.json
file encoding
the VS Code cpp extension
It has come and gone in my c/c++ development, and I don't know if anything specific I've done fixes it or if just restarting VS Code is the solution.
Most recently, I
changed the encoding of all files from UTF-8 to ANSI (in case there were any hidden unicode characters in the file, which happens with copy & paste sometimes)
restarted VS Code
it then complained that the c/c++ extension wasn't installed (it was?) and so I installed it again, and the error is gone.
I had the same issue. I just uninstalled and reinstalled the c/c++ extension and it was back to normal
I ran into the same problem this morning. IntelliSense was at fault.
Only solution I quickly had found for me was to hard-delete C++ IntelliSense extension. Plain uninstall did not help.
You can remove IntelliSense Extension this way:
close all instances of Visual Studio Code,
navigate to folder %USERPROFILE%\.vscode\extensions
delete a folder/folders (incl. subfolders) ms-vscode.cpptools*
start Visual Studio Code again and install fresh IntelliSense extension.
NOTE: you may lose your IntelliSense custom settings!
I cannot compile any C project in Visual Studio, I always get the error:
Please remove DXGIDebug.dll from folder C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64. It is unsecure to run CL.exe until it is done.
I got this error before in Visual Studio 2015 and after trying to repair the installation several times I decided to install VIsual Studio 2017 but the issue persists.
I have got another PC with the same installation and it works fine there. I have already checked if the DLL is corrupted or shouldn't be there but the other PC has the exact same file in the exact same place and it works. I couldn't find anything regarding this issue or anything similar on the internet, as I do not know what to do now to be able to compile a C project.
I have downloaded the 3.5 version of python on my windows 7 home premium computer with version 6.1 software. I wish to use a C main program with python library extensions. I have aded the path to the include folder and the library folder to the dev studio c-compiler. I am testing with the supplied test program that prints out the time but I get a compile error. While it can find Python.h, it can't find python35_d.lib. I can't either. Is it missing from the download or is this another name for a one of the libraries in the download? Thanks
Maybe a little too late, but I found a work around for the missing 'python3x_d.lib' : When installing the python with pythoninstaller.exe, choose the advanced setup options in the first command window of the installation wizard, there choose the option "download debug binaries", then the file python3x_d.lib is automatically installed.
I faced this error when trying to build opencv with python bindings
I downloaded and installed evaluation software of:
Intel Parallel Studio XE Professional Edition for Fortran Windows. My system is a 64 bit, Windows 7 OS. During its installation I was asked to download and install also: Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable(x64)- 12.0.21005 .
I am trying to compile my source files using the command line.
In order for the command ifort to be recognized, I added the directory:
C:\Program Files (x86)\IntelSWTools\compilers_and_libraries_2016.0.110\windows\bin\intel64
to the PATH environment variable . (This folder contains the file ifort.exe).
However, when I try to compile a simple 'Hello World' program by the command:
ifort hello.for
I get the error:
ifort: error #10037: could not find 'link'
The file 'hello.obj' , however, was created.
The steps I tried in order to fix this error (but that made no difference):
1) I tried to add to the PATH environment variable the directory:
C:\Program Files (x86)\IntelSWTools\compilers_and_libraries_2016.0.110\windows\bin\intel64_gfx
This folder contains the file: gfx_linker.exe, which I thought is the needed linker.
2) I tried to change the configuration of Visual Studio to add 64-bit support, according to the 4 steps Steve Lionel (Intel) sugested in (https://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/intel-visual-fortran-compiler-for-windows/topic/300121), but the window that appeared (after pressing the change option in the 'Uninstall or change a program utility' of the control panel) showed no 'x64 compiler&tools' checkbox option, only a repair button option, which made no difference.
3) I tried to update the ifort installation, as Tim Prince suggested in (https://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/intel-visual-fortran-compiler-for-windows/topic/280266). I tried to do it through the 'Uninstall or change a program utility' in the control panel. But selecting the 'Repair' option in the window that appeared blocked the completion of the process by stating that 'repair cannot be done because no available sources were found', and selecting the 'Modify' option, blocked me in the step of 'selecting components to modify' (nothing I chose enabled the 'next' button).
4) Before calling ifort I tried to execute the cammand:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\IntelSWTools\compilers_and_libraries_2016.0.110\windows\bincompilervars.bat" intel64 vs2013
as Steve Lionel (Intel) suggested in the previous link, but got the error:
ERROR: Visual Studio 2013 is not found in the system.
Right now I'm out of options, and beg for help to show me how to fix this error of ifort not being able to find the 'link'.
You can simply compile your Fortran files from command line using ifort, to do that:
Start menu > programs > Intel parallel studio XE 2O16 > Intel 64 visual studio mode or search for Intel 64 in the start menu
open Intel 64 visual studio mode . Now you can start to use ifort and it will work fine.
If you want to know how to invoke it (the parameters used) then right click over Intel 64 visual mode, from the menu choose open file location.
I uploaded these screenshots, just take a look:
From the second screenshot notice the parameters passed to the batch file.
Note: according to Intel documentation the second argument (vs2013) is optional.
My friend got the same problem. Here was what I advise him to do and it worked. The reason why this happened is that you missed link.exe located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\VC\bin\ and other related folders too. So, you can use a small software called everything to search your computer to find out whether the link.exe is missing in your Microsoft Visual Studio folder. If it is the case, you can copy these files from someone else or just reinstall your visual studio and make sure everything is right in place.
I had the same issue.
First of all add "C:\Program Files (x86)\IntelSWTools\compilers_and_libraries_2016.0.110\windows\bin" to path.
Now, from windows command line run: compilervars.bat intel64
It sets up the environment on the windows command line.
now you can access the "ifort" commands without getting the linking errors.
I'm going to start by pointing out the required steps needed for code to metamorphose into executables: [SO]: LNK2005 Error in CLR Windows Form (#CristiFati's answer). That's for C, for Fortran it's the same thing, except:
Step #1. does not exist (at least, I don't think so)
Step #2. will be performed (obviously) by the Fortran compiler
Ran into the same issue when working on [SO]: What is numpy.ctypeslib.as_ctypes exacty doing (#CristiFati's answer). Environment:
Intel's oneAPI HPC Toolkit (also Base - which is a direct dependency) for ifort.exe
Microsoft's Visual Studio (I have many versions installed, chosen v2019 as it was the newest at the time) for link.exe
As seen (one has to look in both Output snippets) I built it manually in 2 steps.
But ifort.exe can automatically invoke link.exe, if the latter's dir is in the PATH variable. For more details on invoking VStudio commands, check [MS.Learn]: Building on the Command Line.
I know it can sound as a pretty dumb question, but I do not have a great experience with installing downloaded libraries...
Anyhow I downloaded the source code of JudyArrays (which is a C library for a 256-trie for those who doesn't know it) from sourceforge and the installation instructions refers to the make command. I tried to download this utility, but I can't get it work. Which is the correct target makefile? All I managed to get was:
"..path\Makefile.in":15: *** missing separator. Stop.
I tried googling for some help but didn't find anything, either I'm searching with the wrong query string or I'm the only dumb person in the whole planet that can't manage to install it...
Any help? Is there any simpler method?
Thanks everyone
Run your Visual Studio Command Prompt to get a cmd.exe with the proper paths set. cd into the src directory of the JudyArrays source code and run build.bat. This'll compile Judy and produce a .lib and a .dll and a Judy.h header file file you'll have to use in your projects as any other 3. party library.
