What does this message means? How to solve this error?
Error 1 general error c1010070: Failed to load and parse the manifest. The system cannot find the file specified. ..\DebugObj\Example1\Example1.exe.intermediate.manifest Example1
I had the same problem on a project I inherited from a pre-2008 Visual studio.
It was not practical for me to add a Main function as sugested by the previous answer. I googled for a while but could not find the root of the problem.
A friend of mine gave me the following solution.
It turns out that the old project included a "example.manifest" file entry in the Resource File Folder in Visual Studio's Solution Explorer for the project. When trying to build the project, VS 2008 was trying to load "example.manifest", which did not exist on the new 2008 folder structor (it was not needed).
So the solution was as simple as removing the entry "example.manifest" from the Resouce Files folder. Rebuilt, and no more errors!. Hope that helps
to fix that error you need to have an entry point in your solution.
just create a main.cpp with a main method... just like this.
in "main.cpp"
void main(){}
then compile and it will get rid of the error.
Had similar issue myself. Converted a VS2005 project to VS2010.
I was using the option, Linker -> Manifest File -> Additional Manifest Dependencies: type='win32' name='Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls' version='6.0.0.0' processorArchitecture='' publicKeyToken='6595b64144ccf1df' language=''
The conversion garbled it into type=%27win32%27...etc
Fixing this option to the correct format, type='win32'..etc resolved the issue. But not before I accidentally used the format, type=win32...etc and received the same error.

I've created a managed C++ log parser application using C++ vectors and Winforms. I want to add multithreading and Boost seemed like a better option than Winforms BackgroundWorker because I want to be able to execute my existing C++ function with each thread. I installed Boost multiple times following multiple different tutorials (lastly this one: https://levelup.gitconnected.com/the-definite-guide-on-compiling-and-linking-boost-c-libraries-for-visual-studio-projects-c79464d7282d) and I still have the same issue when I try to #include <boost/thread.hpp>
Error LNK1104 cannot open file 'libboost_thread-vc143-mt-x64-1_78.lib'
I don't know why it's looking for this library when I have Boost 1_79 installed not 1_78. My .lib file also has "mt-gd-x64" not just "mt-x64". I've already specified the correct file path to the library in Project->Properties->Linker->General->Additional Library Directories. I've also tried installing Boost via Visual Studio 2022 NuGet Package Manager. The lib file in that folder is also slightly off. "vc120" instead of "vc143". I've even tried changing the .lib file name to match the file name in the linker error exactly but when I do that I get more errors like LNK1104 cannot open file 'libboost_chrono-vc143-mt-x64-1_78.lib'
Do I just need to delete all my Boost files and download version 1_78 and try again? Why is Visual Studio looking for the wrong file name when it compiles? Is my #include statement wrong?
I ended up solving this problem by downloading boost 1_78, building it, and specifying that folder instead or the 1_79 folder. If anyone might know why the program was looking for 1_78 instead of 1_79 feel free to respond Also big thanks to George Gkasdrogkas who wrote the tutorial that worked best for me on how to install Boost. Tutorial is linked in the question :)
I have checked the updated code from the weibsite: http://sourceforge.net/projects/clipsrules/
When I build the CLPSStactic project, there is an error displayed in the output window:
..\clipscpplib.cpp(281):error C2664:
"EnvAddRouterWithContext": cannot convert parameter 4 from "int (__cdecl *)(void *,const char *) to "int (__cdecl *)()""
Notes：
I use the VS2012 version
Using VS2012 open the CLIPS.sln(in the folder named "Installer")
has errors in updating to vs2012(CLIPS.vdproj, CLIPSSource.vdproj). But the CLIPS's source code has generated in the folder ../Source/CLIPS.
CLIPSDynamic and CLIPSWrapper can be compiled without errors.
I want to know why this error come out, is it related to the VS version or anything else? How to solve this?
Thank you!

If you have time, please take a look at this. Thank you!
You're using the wrong projects/solutions. Download the latest commit (r281). The solution folders in the microsoft_windows directory that you want to use are CLIPS_MVC_2010, CLIPS_MVC_2013, Examples_MVC_2010, and Examples_MVC_2013. Since you're using Visual Studio 2012, you'll probably want to use the 2010 directories. The instructions in the Advanced Programming Guide specifically reference these directories. Don't use anything in the Installer directory. You'll need to copy the CLIPS source code files from the core directory to the microsoft_windows/Source/CLIPS directory since these aren't replicated in the repository.
I have solved this problem by myself. There's the details:
Copy the "router.h" and "router.c" files from the folder "core" (http://sourceforge.net/p/clipsrules/code/HEAD/tree/)
to the folder "microsoft_windows/Source/CLIPS", and delete both origin files in the folder "../CLIPS".
Don't copy all the files in the folder "core" to "CLIPS". it won't make the CLIPSStatic project built successful either. It seems there are problems in "aggenda.h" or "aggenda.c" of the folder "core".
I think the problem is that the "router.h" and "router.c" generated by the project CLIPS in the folder named "Installer" isn't the newest version.
If you have check the code from the same website, and used the same version VS. you may encounter this problem too. And this manner can help you to solve the problem.
I got this error using Visual Studio 2008 and I found a solution on the web here and here. But I can't find out how to configure link.exe.
How can I set the /expectedoutputsize:600000000 option for linker.exe in VS2008? I searched in the project properties in the Linker section, but I can't find the place...I searched in the solution and in Visual Studio options. I found the linker.exe.config but I don't know the schema.
My problem is not the disk space, I have plenty of disk space. Any help?
The option must be added in the Project Settings->Librarian->Command Line->Additional options: text box.
Sorry to resurrect this old thread, but I had a similar problem yesterday, and my solution had nothing to do with anything I found online. This is the first SO post that comes up, so I figured I would contribute in case anyone as the same problem.
Here is how I ran into the problem:
I originally had a project that created an exe:
MyProject.vcxproj -> MyProject.exe
I then turned the original project in to a .lib project by splitting main.cpp out to a separate .exe project. I set the target name for the exe project to be the same as the lib, so that we wouldn't change our executable name. I also added a different .exe project that uses the library but has a slightly different main.cpp
MyProject.vcxproj -> MyProject.lib
MyProjectVariant1.vcxproj -> MyProject.exe
MyProjectVariant2.vcxproj -> MyProjectVariant2.exe
The way our solution is currently laid out, all of the projects dump their targets into the same output directory.
The problem was that both the .lib and first .exe share the same target name, so any secondary files (pdb files, iobj, ipdb, etc.) would get overwritten. MyProject.exe would literally overwrite these ancillary files before it could link in the MyProject.lib.
Conclusion:
I "fixed" the problem by using a unique target name for the first variant. We will also review our build strategy to see if we should be using different output directories for each project instead of slamming them all together in the same location. Seems more logical to give them different target directories.
While compiling on x64 plattform I am getting following error:
c:\codavs05\hpsw-sc\ovpacc\tools\codaaccesstest\coda_access.cpp(1572): fatal error C1001: An internal error has occurred in the compiler.
(compiler file 'f:\dd\vctools\compiler\utc\src\p2\sizeopt.c', line 55)
To work around this problem, try simplifying or changing the program near the locations listed above.

About my environment: Upgrading Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 to 2010
Please help.
I have had this problem with VS2015 while building locally in Windows.
In order to solve it, I deleted my build folder (Output Directory as seen in Properties/General) and rebuilt the project.
This always seems to help when strange things happen during the build.
I’ve encountered this error many times in VC++. Do the following steps. They’ve sometimes helped me with this issue:
Take a look at the exact location, pointed out by compiler error.
Find any external types or classes used there at that location.
Change the order of “include path” of those files found in step 2 and rebuild the solution.
I hope that help !!!!
I am getting same error with VC2012. Setting up the project properties Optimization to Disabled (/Od) resolved the issue.
In my solution, i've removed output dll file of the project, and I've made project rebuild.
I encountered the same error and spent quite a bit of time hunting for the problem. Finally I discovered that function that the error was pointing to had an infinite while loop. Fixed that and the error went away.
In my case was the use of a static lambda function with a QStringList argument. If I commented the regions where the QStringList was used the file compiled, otherwise the compiler reported the C1001 error. Changing the lambda function to non-static solved the problem (obviously other options could have been to use a global function within an anonymous namespace or a static private method of the class).
I got this error using boost library with VS2017. Cleaning the solution and rebuilding it, solved the problem.
I also had this problem while upgrading from VS2008 to VS2010.
To fix, I have to install a VS2008 patch (KB976656).
Maybe there is a similar patch for VS2005 ?
I got the same error, but with a different file referenced in the error message, on a VS 2015 / x64 / Win7 build. In my case the file was main.cpp. Fixing it for me was as easy as doing a rebuild all (and finding something else to do while the million plus lines of code got processed).
Update: it turns out the root cause is my hard drive is failing. After other symptoms prompted me to run chkdsk, I discovered that most of the bad sectors that were replaced were in .obj, .pdb, and other compiler-generated files.
I got this one with code during refactoring with a lack of care (and with templates, it case that was what made an ICE rather than a normal compile time error)
Simplified code:
void myFunction() {
using std::is_same_v;
for (auto i ...) {
myOtherFunction(..., i);
}
}
void myOtherFunction(..., size_t idx) {
// no statement using std::is_same_v;
if constexpr (is_same_v<T, char>) {
...
}
}
I had this error when I was compiling to a x64 target.
Changing to x86 let me compile the program.
Sometimes helps reordering the code. I had once this error in Visual Studio 2013 and this was only solved by reordering the members of the class (I had an enum member, few strings members and some more enum members of the same enum class. It only compiled after I've put the enum members first).
In my case, this was causing the problem:
std::count_if(data.cbegin(), data.cend(), [](const auto& el) { return el.t == t; });
Changing auto to the explicit type fixed the problem.
Had similar problem with Visual Studio 2017 after switching to C++17:
boost/mpl/aux_/preprocessed/plain/full_lambda.hpp(203): fatal error C1001: An internal error has occurred in the compiler.
1>(compiler file 'msc1.cpp', line 1518)
1> To work around this problem, try simplifying or changing the program near the locations listed above.
Solved by using Visual Studio 2019.
I first encountered this problem when i was trying to allocate memory to a char* using new char['size']{'text'}, but removing the braces and the text between them solved my problem (just new char['size'];)
Another fix on Windows 10 if you have WSL installed is to disable LxssManager service and reboot the PC.
I am trying to upgrade an old solution to use VS2010 (VC100).
I have it setup so that stdafx.cpp will create a precompiled header stdafx.pch from stdafx.h. Then all the other .cpp files that include stdafx.h are instructed to use the precompiled header.
These posts helped me get this far:
Visual C++ Precompiled Headers errors
Precompiled Headers
Now all is fine when I build in release mode. However when I try and build in debug mode I get a whole heap of errors saying:
Error 1 error C2859: [removed]\debug\vc100.idb is not the idb file that was used when this precompiled header was created, recreate the precompiled header.
I believe that this .idb file is an intermediate debug file created by Visual Studio.
Why am I getting this error? In other words why did it not use this .idb file when it created the precompiled header?
I'm not sure what further information you need to be able to give me answer so just ask if there is more information that I need to provide.
Thanks to a colleague I got the answer.
The problem was that stdafx.cpp had Debug Information Format set to Program Database (/Zi) where as all the other files had it set to Program Database for Edit and Continue (/ZI).
Changing them all to Program Database for Edit and Continue (/ZI) and doing a full rebuild solved the problem.
I guess the upgrade screwed it up somehow.
I've hit this error with VS2005 when compiling a project where the $(ProjectName) is different from the actual output file of the project (i.e. Linker > Output File isn't set to the default of $(OutDir)\$(ProjectName).exe but to something else, e.g. $(OutDir)\$(ProjectName)-custom_postfix.exe)
In this case, and apparently only when doing a Rebuild-Project-Only, the vc80.pdb seems to be looked up wrongly.
What helped me was to additionally set C/C++ > Output Files > Progam Database File Name to $(IntDir)\$(TargetName).pdb. (Instead of the default vc80.pdb)
select Disable for the Debug Information Format in the Properties page for stdafx.cpp, then go back and select Inherit from parent worked for me.
Maybe your release build is configured to write file [removed]\debug\vc100.idb instead of [removed]\release\vc100.idb? Check the project settings for your release build and make sure there are no hardcoded path components like that.
Here's how I just fixed this error on Visual Studio 2008:
Background:
I have a solution that contains two sub-projects.
One project compiles the .dll;
One project compiles the .exe that used this .dll;
The .exe project is dependent on the .dll project;
Problem: I had both of the projects dumping their output into the same directory, i.e. both "OutPutDirectory" and "IntermediateDirectory" set to write to a common directory in the root, "../$(ConfigurationName)".
Cause of error:
The cause of this error was that when the .dll project was compiled, it created the precompiled header (*.pch) in the same directory as the .exe directory, and when the .exe project was compiled, it promptly overwrote the precompiled header (*.pch) from the .dll project.
The fix:
To fix this, I changed the "IntermediateDirectory" for both sub-projects to "temp", so that the temporary files (including the precompiled header files) were written to different directories.
