Question

I was googling a bit and heard that although stdint.h was not shipped with old versions of Visual Studio, it should be there in Visual Studio 2010.

However, I have this project that’s supposed to use it, but it says it can’t find either stdlib.h or stdint.h.

Why is that and how could I fix this?

stdint.h is in the standard VC include directory for VS 2010:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\include

I assume by stlib.h you mean stdlib.h, which is also there.

Also, why is #import being used for stdint.h instead of #include? I’m not sure that #import would work, since stdint.h is a straight-up header, not a type library (though it looks like you’re in debug mode, so the build worked?).
