Help on compiling K.Wilder's random number generator with Visio C++ .Net

ligong.yang

Hi all,

I got tortured by a very weird problem when I was using k. wilder's
random generator class in my program. PS: wilder's generator class can
be found at http://oldmill.uchicago.edu/~wilder/Code/random/.

Firstly, I got the notorious "fatal error C1010: unexpected end of file
while looking for precompiled header directive" error when I tried to
compile 'randtest.c' provided by wilder.

Then I use the solution of "creat new header file" in the project
properties to fix the problem. However, I got another series errors as
follows:
