I run 64 bit Vista, Visual Studio 2008 and CPLEX 11.0 (which are listed as compatible at the ILOG website).

The CPLEX 11.0 distribution does not include a manual how to set up with VS2008. I tried using the manual for VS2005. I made two changes to the manual (after consulting "the web"):
1. Added <CPLEXDIR>\lib\x64_.net2005_8.0\stat_mta\cplex110.lib to Additional Dependencies instead of the x86 version
2. Replaced IL_STD by IL_MTD

I created a test project containing lpex7.c as source code. When I try to build I get the following

1>------ Build started: Project: LP7_test, Configuration: Release Win32 ------

Two questions:
1. Is there a manual for VS2008 which I did just not find yet?
2. If not, what else should be changed to be able to link from a VS2008 project to CPLEX 11.0?

Thanks,

Paul

CPLEX 11.0.1 supports Visual Studio 2008.  You can download it from support.ilog.com.

Do any one  have the answer for the  question. Please do help.

Vista 64 bit, Visual Studio 2005, CPLEX 11.2 64 bit. having the same errors which he copies.

C_CPP talks about installing the stuff for 32 bit VS 2005. I am not sure how to get the X64_ license and make the VS 2005 to work. I changed the changes which he posted but no use.

Simple question.
1. How can make Visual Studio 2005 to 64 bit compatible. I was looking for a  a win(64) as the active platform tab in the IDE. Don't know how to do the IDe settings for 64 bit  CPLEX .

ILOG is making life difficult  by not providing the exact .html files.
Any help please..............
