I'm using Visual Studio Professional 2012 (with Update 2) and since I have a project that needs to be built with the VC++ 2010 toolset I also installed Visual C++ 2010 Express (with SP1).
I use the newer 2012 IDE also for the older projects. So for these projects I set the Platform Toolset to v100. And when I also set the runtime library to /MT or /MTd I get the following error:
error LNK1127: library is corrupt
for libcpmt.lib or libcpmtd.lib, depending on the configuration.
What could be wrong here?
Installation history:
VS2012 Professional
Windows 7 SDK
Uninstalled VS2012 and Windows SDK
VC++ 2010 Express
VS2012 Professional
If I understood correctly, you installed VS2010 after installing VS2012? If not, please edit your question to make it clear.
This sequence of installations is not recommended by Microsoft, and there are plenty of caveats and ReadMe's to navigate in order to find out what's happened.
I suggest that the best thing to do is to reinstall VS2012 (or do a repair install), then see what - if anything - is still broken.

I have a programm using an GSL library which worked quite well with Visual Studio 2013. Now I set up a new Windows version and installed Visual Studio 2015 RC Community.
After that I can not compile the code anymore. After converting the code to the new tool set I got the error that some external symbols of the libraries could not be found. I think this has something to do with the fact, that the library was build with Visual C++ v120.
So is there a possiblilty to add this Compiler Version to the Studio? And does it work without trouble next to a new version installed. I do not want to install the older version of VS, because of the possibility of some troubles haveing to version parallel installed.
You can install VS2013 toolset version from your VS2015 installer without installing visual studio 2013. From the 2015 installer, select Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone 8.0/8.1 Tools. Thats it.
Found it in a msdn forum (have to be the first time something is actually solved in a microsoft forum)
Install Visual Studio 2013
Open your Project in Visual Studio 2015
In the General page of the Project Properties, change the Platform Toolset to "Visual Studio 2013 (v120)"
You never have to open Visual Studio 2013; you just have to install it so that Visual Studio 2015 can find the toolset. (Unfortunately there is no way to install just the toolset.)
I cannot execute my gtkmm-app any longer in visual studio 2012. It compiles fine but when executing it crasches. I get the error message that MSVCP100D.dll is missing.
I made this app in visualstudio 2010 last spring. OS was windows XP. No problem whatsoever.
Now I have visualstudio 2012 and windows 8.1 and get this error-message.
I dont know what to do? Is there a way to install MSVCP100.dll in the system-folder or could something be done in VS 2012?
I may underline that I just encountetred this problem when compiling and executing my gtkmm-app for the first time since the platform change and IDE-update. Ordinary console-applications no problems whatsoever.
If you also have time/knowledge - what is the purpose of this dll-file?
You are getting this error probably because you changed your compiler.
What you can do is to either recompile gtkmm with current Visual Studio or download pre-compiled binaries and rebuild your application.
Option 2 is to install Visual Studio 2010 back and forget about Visual Studio 2012.
If you want both latest Visual Studio and gtkmm 3 then...
It's not an easy task, and it's hard to answer your question in detail here, so
Here is an tutorial to let you get started compiling/installing gtkmm 3 in Visual Studio 2013 for Windows 7 and later:
I have a Visual Studio project that I created in my previous PC (32-bit if that makes any difference). I recently got a new PC (64-bit) and I am trying to open the project and I am seeing the following error:
Unsupported
This version of Visual Studio does not have the following project types installed or does not support them. You can still open these projects in the version of Visual Studio in which they were originally created.
- ONew, "C:\temp\onb\ONewSln\ONew\ONew.csproj"
No changes required
These projects can be opened in this version of Visual Studio without changing them. They will continue to open in Visual Studio 2010 SP1 and in this version of Visual Studio.
- ONewWeb, "C:\temp\onb\ONewSln\ONewWeb\ONewWeb.csproj"
- ONewSln, "C:\temp\onb\ONewSln\ONewSln.sln"

Is there a add-on or visual studio component that I have to download to make it work?
Please help me resolve the issue.
After doing some research and spending hours banging my head against the wall, I figured out how to resolve the issue.
You have to install Microsoft Office Developer Tools for Visual Studio 2012.
Open up the Web Platform Installer and if you don’t have it installed, download and install it. Search for Office Developer Tools and install it.
This will enable you to open the project without any issue.
Usually you can open VS2010 SP1 files in VS2012. But after opening and on compiling you may get some errors of missing packages. Then you have to install the missing packages. Check this out: Visual Studio 2012 compatibilty.
Some solutions, projects, files, and other assets that you created in Visual Studio 2010 Service Pack 1 (SP1) will run without modification in Visual Studio 2012, but others have to be upgraded. The above document describes how various kinds of assets behave in these two versions of Visual Studio.
If you use both Visual Studio 2012 and Visual Studio 2010 SP1, you can create and modify projects and files in either version as long as you don't add features that require Visual Studio 2012.
VS2012 may convert projects when you first open them, but the changes are (except noted in the document linked) backward compatible with VS2010.
I tried to open in Visual Studio 2012 a VS 2010 solution and I get these error:
Unable to read the project file "Language.vcxproj".
D:...\Language\Language.vcxproj(2,33): The tools version "4.0" is unrecognized. Available tools versions are "2.0".
It has something to do with the ToolsVersion attribute:
I believe this may be something with target platform settings, or with the version of the .NET framework, or with the version of the C++ compiler.
BTW, this also happens with .csproj files contained on other solutions I have.
What annoys me more is that I have a colleague that can open those solutions in his computer without any problem and I can not.
In the Control Panel, I have this items for the .NET framework:
Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5 Multi-Targeting Pack
Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5 SDK
Help, please!
How can I find What Update version I have in Visual Studio 2012? (update 1 or 2 or 3). HOw can I go back to update 1 so that I can build .dll which can be supported in windows XP? I am sorry It's not a programming question but highly appreciated for your answer. I'm stuck!
I have a following Error: Unable to load DLL 'xxx.dll': The specified procedure could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007F)
My Target OS is windows XP: 32 bit .NET 4.0.
Also Same dll works for windows 7 and other so I think there shouldn't be dependency problem.
Help -> About will tell you what update you are running.
As far as I can tell, targeting windows XP is supported from VS 2012 with any update. You just need to make sure the project targets a version of the .NET framework that is supported on Windows XP. (.NET 4 or earlier)
How can I find What Update version I have in Visual Studio 2012?
Open Visual Studio, Click Help, Click About. See Second line.
Mine says "Version 11.0.60315.01 Update 2"
How can I go back to update 1?
(assuming Windows 7)
Control panel > Programs and Features > view installed updates > uninstall the update you want under the Visual Studio 2012 category.
That being said, I have no idea if this solution is actually something you need to do or will fix your problem. It is simply about how to remove the updates. It sounds like you may just need to download the latest .NET framework for XP.
