[sword-devel] Sword and MS VC++ 6.0

[Robbert Dam]

Thanks (I overlooked those),

I looked in apps/windoze/vc and  saw the project files. But I cannot read
then with Visual Studio 6.0. It says these files are not created with Visual
Studio (both the ActiveDiatheke and swordlib projects).

I copied all the sources in my project and tried to compile them. I get a
load of errors and warnings. Many errors are related to STL classes and
standard C functions (they cannot be found).

Can the files be fixed? Or can someone give me some input on VC project
settings needed to build Sword, so I can do it myself?

Thanks very much,

--Robbert

Bible texts fullscreen (using OpenGL). The application can be used to
display bible passages on a beamer (for churches). We have a beamer in our
church and it would be real nice to have a solution that can automate the
rendering of bible verses. Currently I have to cut and paste texts in
PowerPoint for every service.

be the Windows platform) and it provides a huge amount of functionality for
