error MSB6006: “CL.exe” exited with code 2

Question

I\'m writing with visual c++ and when I compile this error occures:

C:\\Program Files (x86)\\MSBuild\\Microsoft.Cpp\\v4.0\\Platforms\\Win32\\Microsoft.Cpp.Wi         


        

Answer 1

This happened me for a variety of different reasons:

1) I forgot to add a return statement to a non-void function.

2) I tried to use an uninitialized pointer.

3) I wrote a loop like for(int i=i;...) instead of for(int i=0;...)

You can check your code for these and it may help.
