Can't open project in Visual Studio 2013 #2

Closed boergens closed 4 years ago

I try to open the project and I get the following error message:

image Any advice on how to solve this?

You'll need to download the plugin-GUI source code into the same directory as the probe-viewer. The probe-viewer project depends on properties (.props) files that are stored there.

You'll need to build the plugin-GUI before compiling the probe-viewer, anyway—the probe-viewer plugin can't be compiled as a standalone application.

@jsiegle thanks for your reply! However, that is how I have set it up. I took a look myself and I think you have many malformed paths in the project definition file, in this specific case the line https://github.com/open-ephys/probe-viewer/blob/development/ProbeViewer/Builds/VisualStudio2013/ProbeViewer.vcxproj#L82 should just be:

<Import Project="..\..\..\Builds\VisualStudio2013\Plugins\Plugin_Debug32.props" />

Anyway, Harbi pointed the precompiled version of ProbeViewer for neuropix out to me, so no hurries

Weird, I just tested it on another computer and it loaded fine.

What is your directory structure? I have it as:

~/GitHub
    /probe-viewer
    /plugin-GUI

Ah sorry, I misunderstood "you'll need to download the plugin-GUI source code into the same directory as the probe-viewer" I literally merged the two folders. In which case, my fix would have made sense. Now it works! Thanks for your help

Closing as this no longer applies after cmake migration.
