Can’t add files to project

[tunelabguy]

I created a project using the AppWizard from VC++6.0. As long as I continue to use the same few files that AppWizard created, everything is fine. Now if I add another file to the project, it compiles but does not link. But if I move that very same code into one of the original files, then everything links (for the emulator). I can’t build my whole application using the same 4 files that AppWizard generated. How can I add files to the project so that they link?

OK, I found out what to do. You cannot just add a file in the MVC++6.0 IDE. You must first get out of the IDE and edit the .MMP file to add the new source file. Then use the command line:

abld makefile vc6

in the folder where the abld.bat file is. This will remake the .DSW workspace file for the IDE that will properly include the new object file into the link.
