pga2/pga3: visual studio .NET

Dave,

I got VS .NET Academic (from an MS convention) and compiled PGA3 (release
and debug) without any problems. It wanted to "convert" the project file,
but it took about a millisecond and it didn't seem to make many changes at
all. Both debug and release run fine.

On the PGA2 side, I couldn't get it to compile in VB. I had to "convert" the
project to VBA7, and it took AN HOUR on my system (which is a 2600+ with a
gig-o-ram). It came up with about a hundred different errors ... I am not
into VB so I don't even know where to begin where to guess where the problem
is.

At any rate, I was hoping to get the newest cool stuff for PGA2 (I'm still
on 1.4.12). Which files do I need from the bins to get it up to date and
where do I put them? Were you still planning to bump it up to 1.6 soon?
Curiousity is eating me.

Thanks. PS, the last problem I had with the missing resource is now null and
void, as it was a CVS conflict on my side that didn't resolve properly
(apologies to Andreas).

Hi Keith,

Yeah, I tried VB7 when it first came out as I originally intended to
port pga2 to it until I saw how different it was and figured I would be
better off learning C# instead (which I did then promptly forgot most
of!).

If you look in the binaries directory in CVS, there is a readme that
explains how to upgrade an installation. That procedure should work for
you even if you don't have anything installed already. The actual
locations of the files don't matter, and you don't actually need the
exporter/plugin dlls, other than pgAbsPlg.dll and pgAbsExp.dll (or
whatever they're called).

Regards, Dave.
