Sorry to add yet another tedious and over asked question to this mailing list but I really need some help. I am trying to write some pd externals and decided to start by using the tutorial example "Helloworld". BUT Visual C++ WILL NOT compile it, it simply says 'UNEXPECTED END OF FILE WHILE LOOKING FOR PRECOMPILED HEADER DIRECTIVE". I really don't know what to do, and yes I have looked through the archives and still found nothing. I just need to know how to set up Visual C++ for pd. PLEASE help me someone!!
