Question

I am using Visual studio 2008. I have a Visual C project “new.vcproj”. There needed to be some changes made such that it utilizes class methods from another Visual C project “old.vcproj”. The class is defined in class.hpp and implemented in class.cpp from project “old.vcproj” How can I include the class from “old” in the project “new”?

Answer 1

You can add class.hpp and class.cpp as existing items to the header and source parts of new.vcproj.

If old.vcproj compiles to a library, a better way would be to just include the header file class.hpp in your new.vcproj source files and and then link to the old.vcproj library.
