How do I specify MSBuild to execute command-line calls in ascii not unicode
- by Ben L
I'm attempting to target VC7.1 (visual studio 2003 sp1) from Visual Studio 2010.
I'm so close to setting it to work. But when I build, I get this error.
1------ Build started: Project: AnExample, Configuration: Release Win32 ------

1LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file ' ¦/.obj'
I know this is unsupported but I thought I'd give it a go.
Does anyone know how to force the output from msbuild to be ascii or if this is the problem? There were some errors like this years ago related to the DDK acorrding to some other forums.
Thanks.
