Code working in Eclipse doesn't run in Visual Studio

michelito over 2 years ago

I'm trying to move to Visual Studio from development in Eclipse previously.

Visual Studio and Monkey C plugin installed properly, verified in VS.

No code that worked in Eclipse will run in the VS environment. To make sure it wasn't due to my rusty coding skills,

I downloaded and tried to run the Crystal watch face, after downloading its code from github.

It doesn't run either, giving me a bunch of errors.

What am I doing wrong? Is there an error checking level that is higher in VS than Eclipse?

Help!

Did you change SDKs? The newer ones have type checking enabled by default. What kind of errors are you seeing?

In Crystal's monkey.jungle add the following line:

project.typecheck = 0

That will turn off type checking for that app. Do you still get the errors?

You're a savior. Worked for Crystal by adding the "project.typecheck = 0" line in monkey.jungle.

My stuff gives me different errors now, but I think these are probably my own.

If Crystal works, I'll just have to work on mine more!

THANK YOU Jim!

edit: made mine work too by eliminating something I was working on in Eclipse

Any suggestion why I'm getting a lot of :

Cannot resolve type 'String'.

Cannot resolve type 'Boolean'.

In my own code that used to work in Eclipse?
