Problem installing FLTK in Visual Studio
Hello guys,
I am learning C++ on my own. I have done more or less the 1st 100 pages of a book called Jumping into C++ by Alex Allain using Codeblock as a compiler.
I also got the book Programming Principles and Practice Using C++ by Bjarne Stroustrup. I like to scroll this second book sometimes when I want to get another explanation for something. Here the author uses Visual Studio 2005 and in the appendix he explains how to use the std_lib_facilities.h header and how to download and install FLTK for the graphics. Setting up everything has been a nightmare since Visual Studio has different versions and FLTK does too. I downloaded Visual Studio Express and Visual Studio 2015 Community. The instructions fail because the folders have changed and when I run the sample code to see if FLTK is working, nothing works. Anyone have any tips? Tried Youtube and only found one video doing something similar and still can't make it work.
