=Visual C++ Toolkit 2003=
 
This is a [http://msdn.microsoft.com/visualc/vctoolkit2003/ free download] from Microsoft, and is the same compiler and linker as Visual Studio 2003. Note, you must have Windows XP in order to install the toolkit.
 
  
==Downloads==
 
* Install the [http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=272BE09D-40BB-49FD-9CB0-4BFA122FA91B&displaylang=en Visual C++ Toolkit 2003] from the Microsoft web site.
 
* Install the [http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=D8EECD75-1FC4-49E5-BC66-9DA2B03D9B92&displaylang=en Windows Platform SDK] from the Microsoft web site. You can take any of the 3 versions available.
 
* Install the [http://www.codeblocks.org/modules.php?op=modload&name=Downloads&file=index&req=viewdownload&cid=1 Code::Blocks] (alternative download site on [http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/codeblocks/ Sourceforge]). You can take the full version or the core only, since we will use the VS 2003 TK.
 
 
==Configuring Code::Blocks==
 
* Run CodeBlocks. The first time you install it, you will be listed with a set of compilers. Select Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit, and click Set As Default.
 
* For configuration you have to include the location of the Windows Platform SDK.  Go to '''Settings''' -> '''Compiler''' in the menu. Click the '''Directories''' tab.  Add the directory "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDK\bin" to the Resource Compiler tab.
 
 
 
=Compiling with Code::Blocks and Visual C++ Toolkit=
 
Once you have checked out the vegastrike and vega-vc7 modules from [[HowTo:Checkout CVS|CVS]], import the vegastrike.sln file, found in the vega-vc7 directory into Code::Blocks using '''Project->Import->''' in the menu.
