I’ve installed Visual Studio C++ Express 2012 and want to use it’s compiler with Code::Blocks. Starting cl.exe does not work (missing mspdb100.dll) until I run vcvars32.bat, but that does only hold on for the current session in the Command-line. The same applies to compiling with Code::Blocks.

How can I make it run the vcvars32.bat before compiling?

    Workaround

    That workaround is actually not what I was looking for, but it works, and that is important. Instead of letting Code::Blocks running cl.exe directly, I’ve set-up a simple batch-script that runs vcvars32.bat before running the actual compiler.

    REM File: cl.bat
call vcvars32.bat
call cl.exe %1 %*
