x264 CLI - Using M$ VC++

[Sirber]

VC doesn't want to open the project. I know it's because all files uses linux linebreaks. Is there an easy way to open them?

[Sharktooth]

There are a lot of free tools for converting CR to CR+LF.
Google is your friend :)

[Sirber]

Yeah. I kew I might have to convert. But... why do I have to do this? :confused:

[edit]

Talking about the conversion, not using google ;)

[Sharktooth]

Never used VC++ but i think it's because its textfile parser doesnt support *nix text files.

Last time i tried ( rev 170 ), there were no problem at all. The only issue was with .asm files whose command line had been added quotes ( it's an issue between msvc 6 and 7 if i'm not mistaken ).

Same here, with rev233 ... i don't remember having problem with vc6 projects files, there was some other problems (perhaps those "" in asm command for vc7 yeah) but not this one.

same as above but if you open all the files in wordpad and hit save it converts them to the right text format form visual studio 2003. It's what I have to do when I make builds for xvid. also the asm quote thingy....I don't know much about x264 in terms of compiling since there is really no point in amking my own builds since it has only mmx and isse enahncements.

Winzip has this 'smart' CR/LF option that automatically converts Unix to DOS CR. Since it's set by default, if you used it in the past, you probably didn't even notice this problem.
