Smile in Visual C++ Windows Forms Application

Now when I include smile.h in "release":

1>c:\documents and settings\nuk\moje dokumenty\visual studio 2005\projects\ttt\ttt\smile.h(11) : fatal error C1189: #error : In release build _SECURE_SCL must be defined and set to zero for VS.NET 2005 or late.

You can't, but smile.h takes care of selecting the proper library (this can be disabled, but I think you can just leave the auto-linking on). All you need to do is ensure that the path to directory containing smile*.lib files is set globally in Tools/Options or as configuration property in Linker/General/Additional Library Directories.

That should be self-explaining

The best place to set this is in C++/Preprocessor/Preprocessor Definitions - note that you only need to that for release build.

How to run my program on computers without Visual C?

Use static C/C++ runtime. Alternatively, you may look into distributing the CRT with your application, but for VStudio 2005/2008 it's probably not worth the effort.

I have to do some experiments with my program on computers without Visual C++. Like I said before, it is my first program in Visual C++, so please give me more details. What should I set in project properties? Maybe I should copy some libraries with the exe file?

Project properties -> C++ -> Code generation -> Runtime library -> Multithreaded (/MT). Make sure you're doing that in release configuration. Rebuild the project and you should be able to distribute the exe file to other machines without installing any dependencies.

Maybe I should copy some libraries with the exe file?

You'll be linking statically with CRT just to avoid that.

I've changed this option before, because smile didn't work with Windows Forms Application.

In this case, stick with CRT in DLL and use the redistributable package containing the VC++ 8.0 runtime:

Finally, you'll need to install the proper version of .NET on the target machine.
