Minor Warning ( BSCMAKE )

[Adrian Sloan]

Hello,

I've been experiencing BSCMAKE warning BK4504 ( minor error in .SBR file
'%s' ignored ) with the following code. I get this warning every time I
attempt to use a
.NET enum.

I am using Visual Studio .NET Beta 2 Enterprise Edition.
I have installed Visual Studio .NET Beta 2 Service Pack 2

stdafx.h:
// Not changed from generated file

stdafx.cpp:
// Not changed from generated file

EnumWarningExample.cpp:
#include "stdafx.h"
#using <mscorlib.dll>
using namespace System;

int main(void)
{
System::Threading::Thread::CurrentThread->ApartmentState =
System::Threading::ApartmentState::STA;

return 0;
}

AssemblyInfo.cpp:
// Not changed from generated file

I am using the following compiler options for stdafx.cpp:
/Od /D "WIN32" /D "_DEBUG" /D "_MBCS" /FD /EHsc /MTd /GS /Yc"stdafx.h" \
/Fp"Debug/EnumWarningExample.pch" /Fo"Debug/" /Fd"Debug/vc70.pdb"
\
/FR"Debug/" /W3 /nologo /c /Zi /clr /TP

I am using the following compiler options for
EnumWarningExample.cpp and AssemblyInfo.cpp:
/Od /D "WIN32" /D "_DEBUG" /D "_MBCS" /FD /EHsc /MTd /GS /Yu"stdafx.h"
\
/Fp"Debug/EnumWarningExample.pch" /Fo"Debug/" /Fd"Debug/vc70.pdb"
/FR"Debug/" \
/W3 /nologo /c /Zi /clr /TP

I am using the following linker options:
/OUT:"Debug/EnumWarningExample.exe" /INCREMENTAL /NOLOGO /DEBUG
\
/PDB:"Debug/EnumWarningExample.pdb" kernel32.lib user32.lib gdi32.lib
winspool.lib \
comdlg32.lib advapi32.lib shell32.lib ole32.lib oleaut32.lib uuid.lib
odbc32.lib odbccp32.lib

( The only option I have changed is to enable building the browser
database )

There is a KB article about this message (Q179270), but it doesn't apply
since RTTI
isn't enabled, and the PCH is being built for stdafx.cpp.

If I use the explicit enum value like this:

System::Threading::Thread::CurrentThread->ApartmentState =
(System::Threading::ApartmentState) 0;

I don't get the warning, however this is worse in my opinion than getting
the warning,
especially for enums that values are combined for.

Anyone have more on this?
Does it really change anything?

Which exact versions of VS7 are you using? I have post Beta2 build and have
set the exact same compiler switches. I used the Managed C++ application
project setting for a new fresh project, so that I know I am getting a clean
stdafx.cpp and .h file. I cut and copied the contents of your main function
and compiled in the IDE....

result: no warning.

Here is the code that I have in the cpp file:

#include "stdafx.h"

#using <mscorlib.dll>

#include <tchar.h>

using namespace System;

// This is the entry point for this application

int _tmain(void)

{

System::Threading::Thread::CurrentThread->ApartmentState =

System::Threading::ApartmentState::STA;

return 0;

}

Please give me more info if I'm missing something here. Using the enums
shouldnt give you any warning at all... I am interested in this issue.

thanks,

This happens in ALL visual studio versions 4,5,6,7.

The cause is that the language structure allows setups
that the browser file structure can not handle.
