walktest build errors

[Dutch]

My system:
AMD Phenom 8550 triple core processor running at 2.2 GHz
4Gb memory
Vista Home Premium 32 bit with SP2
Visual Studio Express 2008
DirectX9.0c

I have succesfuly run wkstypical and am now trying to run walktest.   I have set up a new project and imported the .h and .cpp files from the walktest folder.   When I try to build the program I get error messages; the log file is attached.   What am I missing?

OK!   I've now discovered that I have to add CS_BUILD_SHARED_LIBS to the preprocessor definitions.   I've done that and walktest now compiles.   But, when I run it, I get an error message "This application has failed to start because crystalspace-1.4-vc9_d.dll was not found.   Re-installing the application may fix the problem".   crystalspace-1.4-vc9_d.dll is located in two place; in my CS folder and in the out\debu9\bin folder.   So, where is walktest trying to find this file?

Probably Windows tries to find that DLL in whatever the working directory is; it may actually be anything... however, you can set it:
In in the project properties you find a section "Debugging". There you have a setting "Working Directory". Set it to the CS directory. That way the current directory when the app starts will be the CS dir and Windows should find the DLL.

Thanks, Res.   I've done as you suggest and now get a different set of errors!

i)   The command window tells me that the plugin crystalspace.kernel.vfs could not be loaded  (I  can't find this in any of my folders)

ii)    Failed to initialize config!   I've double checked the CRYSTAL environment setting, which is correct.

What's wrong now?

OK its working now!   I think all I had to do was reboot the PC.

Its fun being a beginner!
