Visual C++ Toolkit 2003 Q&A

What is the Visual C++ Toolkit 2003?
The Visual C++ Toolkit is a free edition of Microsoft’s professional Visual C++ optimizing compiler and standard libraries – the same optimizing compiler and standard libraries that ship in Visual Studio .NET 2003 Professional!   

Are there any restrictions on how I use the Visual C++ Toolkit?
In general, no. You may use the Toolkit to build C++ -based applications, and you may redistribute those applications. Please read the End User License Agreement (EULA), included with the Toolkit, for complete details.   

I have Visual Studio or Visual C++. Do I need the Visual C++ Toolkit?
The Visual C++ Toolkit will work fine alongside installed versions of Visual Studio and Visual C++. If you already use Visual Studio .NET 2003, you do not need the Visual C++ Toolkit, unless you want to see the included samples. Everything else included in the Toolkit is included with Visual Studio .NET 2003.   

Is there any technical support available for the Visual C++ Toolkit?
No. The Visual C++ Toolkit is a free download and is provided without formal technical support. Documentation for the Visual C++ compiler is available online, and it is recommended that further assistance be obtained by posing questions in online programming newsgroups and community forums.   

What does the Visual C++ Toolkit install on my machine?
The Toolkit installs 1) the Visual C++ command-line compiler and linker, and their dependencies. 2) the Visual C++ C Runtime Library and static-link modules, and the Standard C++ Library, including STL 3) the Microsoft .NET Framework Runtime, including library files necessary for building C++ applications that run on the .NET Common Language Runtime, 4) four samples demonstrating key features of the Visual C++ compiler and libraries.   

What do I do after I’ve downloaded and installed the Visual C++ Toolkit?
Start by familiarizing yourself with the included samples. Learn how Visual C++ can help you write better applications. Learn how Visual C++ can better optimize your applications, and make them more robust. Learn how to incorporate advanced ISO C++ template features in your code. Learn how to optionally incorporate the .NET Framework in to your applications. Then, build your own C++ programs using the Toolkit. You might decide you want to augment the Toolkit with additional free tools from Microsoft, including the Platform SDK, or the .NET Framework SDK. You might also wish to evaluate and upgrade to Visual Studio .NET Professional, which includes many additional tools and features for C++ developers, including a professional debugger and code editor.

    I've read the EULA for VCTK2003. I've also read the EULA for MSVS 7 Architect. They are pretty much the same at this point:

    "1.1 General License Grant.
    Microsoft grants to you as an individual, a personal, nonexclusive license to use the Software, and to make and use copies of the Software for the prposes of designing, developing, testing, and demonstrating your software product(s), provided that you are the only individual using the Software."
    (.NET Architect)

    "General License Grant. Microsoft grants to you as an individual, a personal, nonexclusive license to make and use copies of the Software (i) for your internal use; (ii) for designing, developing, testing and demonstrating your software product(s); and (iii) for evaluation of the Software. "
    (VCTK2003)

    And also I've read that in general there are no restrictions to use VCTK2003. But I'm still confused about the possibilities of using mentioned TK. So may I use it to develop and distribute shareware games?

    I’ve asked the Visual C++ team and got the answer I was expecting: you should ask your lawyer to make sure since we don't give legal advice to interpret licenses. They are what they are.

    That having been said, there are no additional restrictions on developing shareware or commercial apps with the toolkit compared with VS Pro or Architect that I am aware of.

    But again, I’m not a lawyer…

    Sorry Dmitry.

    Can projects created and developed with Visual Studio .NET 2003 be complied with Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit 2003 (If Visual Studio .NET 2003 is not installed).

    I dont have VS .Net 2003, so if I download sample projects from internet written in VS .Net 2003, can I build them with MS VC++ TLK 2003?

    If not, where can I find more info on modifying a VS .Net project so it will build with the free toolkit?

    Thanks

    Fisher,

    I have never installed the toolkit myself and it looks like you did not either.
    From the updated Q&A section on http://msdn.microsoft.com/visualc/vctoolkit2003/, I'm guessing that the answer is no...and yes: the .sln and .vcproj files are consumed by the IDE and the toolkit doesn't give you any BUT you can certainly build the samples without those. You just need to do it manually (build your own make or .BAT/.CMD file).
    Does this 'help'?
