compiling without Visual Studio .NET

[tirzanello]

Hi all,

I've found this amusing project:
http://inpainting.alpha-sigma.net/

but there are only source codes, the author suggests to compile it with
Visual Studio .NET 7.1 or more. The problem is that I don't have it,
and I'm searching a way to compile it without the Visual Studio 7.1 is
it possible? Do you know any free compiler or whatever to compile it?

thanks!!!!

thanks a lot! it seems a very good solution!
Unfortunately on my PC I can't install SP2 (long story, a conflict with
the broken DVD device), Visual Studio Express refuses to install itself
without SP2 :-(
I can try to compile it on another computer or installing SP2 on an
emulated windows (with WMware, i.e.)... yes, usually I use g++ under
linux, I'm not so confortable with windows' problems. That's pity, do
you know other ways to compile it on my PC? any other compiler who
don't require SP2?

thanks!!!!

You are welcome.

really kind!!!

thanks again!!

Well, if you have a broadband connection to the net and if you have a
legitimate copy of XP, then you should be able to download XP/SP2 and forego
the DVD install

no?

If not then I _think_ you are out of luck. Sorry.

When you have installed the .net sdk then you can use the free ide
#develop (sharpdevelop):
http://www.icsharpcode.com/OpenSource/SD/Default.aspx
or
http://www.icsharpcode.com/OpenSource/SD/Download/
It's open source and the new version 2.0 is available now!

This ide can open the project files from visual studio. Just try it,
it's free!
