Oh let's humour him and provide him with the answer.
DevStudio works with projects. It doesn't do the "single .cpp" thing by design, and it's something you have to live with.
The underlying idea behind it is that a single .cpp doesn't really tell the compiler and linker what it is supposed to do...
Do you want a windows console exe ? A GUI exe ? A dll ? A 32bit or a 64 bit one ? Ascii or Unicode ?
You could have defaults for all, or you could just require a file that has all those configuration options in it... Lo and behold, that's exactly what a project file does.
okay thanks
