问题
I plan to write application in C using Microsoft Visual Studio 2012. The problem is that I can't find a way to compile it right in the editor. I found this solution http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb384838.aspx but I dont like it. Can you recommend me a way to compile C program right in the Visual Studio 2012?
回答1:
It is a little bit tricky to compile plain C90 and C++x0 (only partially supported) projects in VS2010 (and probably Visual Studio 11, I haven't tried native development in it yet).
What you have to do is to create a new C++ project without precompiled header -- this is the primary requirement if you want to compile a platform-independent code (library, console application).
There are several ways to do it. One way is to create a normal Win32 C++ console application, in the opened wizard you should go to the second page (by clicking "Next") and then uncheck the option "Include precompiled header". Then you can compile C++ (and C) projects directly in VS.
回答2:
Also check "properties -> c/c++ -> advanced -> Compile as" make sure it says "c code"
or on the command line use /TC
回答3:
Create an empty C++ project in Visual Studio (File -> New Project -> Visual C++ -> Empty Project), then add a source file with a .c extension to it (right click the project, select Add -> New Item -> C++ File (.cpp), and change the name of the file).
When you build, the compiler will compile it as C code (note that Visual C++ supports only C90, not C99, so newer C language features are not usable).
回答4:
By default, the Visual C++ compiler treats all files that end in .c as C source code, and all files that end in .cpp as C++ source code. To force the compiler to treat all files as C regardless of file name extension, use the /Tc compiler option.

Go to Menu command to open "Project -> Properties" dialogue. Then in "Configuration Properties" select "C/C++ -> Advanced" pane. Change "Compile As" drop-down box from "Default" to "Compile as C Code (/TC). Click on "Apply" button and then "OK" to close the dialogue.
回答5:
select new project,win 32console application ,uncheck precompiled header,select empty project.. Then add a new item,select..cpp file then rename the file with .c.extension and you're done to compile c codes..
回答6:
It's also same for newer VS versions, what you have to do is as mentioned by @Alexander Galkin,
- Right Click to Project Properties
- C/C++
- Advanced
- Set "Compile As" to "Compile as C Code(/TC)"
To demonstrate it visually, check the screen-shot below;
