Help on using k.wilder's random number generator class in 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:

Your problems have little to do with C++ programming.
Your problems are all about how to operate your compiler.

See the welcome message posted twice per week in comp.lang.c++ under the
subject "Welcome to comp.lang.c++! Read this first." or available at
http://www.slack.net/~shiva/welcome.txt

Don't create meaningless header files. Instead turn off the
precompiled headers options when you are not using them.

You don't need to post dozens of copies of copies of the same message.

Finally, you are compiling it as C instead of C++. Add the option to
always compile as C++, or change the file extension.
