Order of installing

I got errors during the installation of the directX SDK. the problems occured while it was installing the c++ Runtimes (which have already been installed before). So here is what i did to fix this:

  • remove all 2010 installations
  • install the DirectX SDK (June 2010) (that also installs the redistributable packages)
  • Install the Visual C++ 2010 Express
  • Install Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET Framework 4
  • Run Microsoft Update

C2220 + C4819 when using non-English VS compiler

When you see the message like this: 

error C2220: warning treated as error - no 'object' file generated
warning C4819: The file contains a character that cannot be represented in the current code page (932)

(The message depends on the language you use.)

The cause is that the compiler fails in treating BOM in some characters. Currently, the header files from COLLADA dom have several type of such characters. You need to dig in Drive:\your_path\build-vc100\packages\include\collada\1.4\dom and change all of them to avoid these errors.

Character Should be
” "
“ "
– -
‘ '
’ '

If your editor has grep-and-replace feature, you can easily do that. Or, you can use sed, awk or other command line tool as well. In Cygwin or shell kin, cd to the header files directory above and run: 

for FILE in *.h; do cp $FILE $FILE.bak; sed -e "s/[”“]/\"/g" $FILE.bak | sed -e "s/–/-/g" | sed -e "s/[‘’]/'/g" > $FILE; done
