Plain old C in .Net

Sorry about posting this here, couldn't find anywhere more appropriate.

I'm just getting familiar with .net and c#, but now I want to create, compile and run a simple C program from the .Net IDE.

I have created a Win32 Empty App and have entered the test code:

#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
printf("Hello World\n");
return 0;
}

... and built it fine, but it does not create the .exe for me to run it.

Can anyone offer some help with this? Or better still, point me to a site that actually shows you have to build a C project from .Net IDE, I'm fumbling my way through it at the minute.

Thanks in advance.

VS.NET 03?

To build a C app (as opposed to C++) go into Project -> Properties -> Configuration Properties -> C/C++ -> Advanced and for "Compile As" choose "Compile as C code (/TC)".

It will build in you /Debug or /Release directories depending on which build configuration is active.

Yes, VS.NET 2003.

With this project, Win32 > Application Settings > Empty Project

I don't have the C/C++ menu under Config Properties. :S

If I create a Win32 default project (Not empty) and switch to compile c, it brings up a host of errors due to the printf source.

are you sure you're doing that exactly as said? cuz thats what I always do to make C project. Are you sure your file's extension is .C ?

do you want to test the file I attached?
