I'm using Visual Studio 2010.
Here's what I get as an error when I try to compile my DLL:
Error 1 error C1083: Cannot open precompiled header file: 'Debug

Well, here's the steps I take when creating this project:
File, New Project
Win32 Console Application
I enter a name in Name and click OK.
When the wizard comes up, I click Next
Application settings, the ONLY thing that is checked is DLL under
'Application Type'. (Visual Studio greys out 'pre compiled headers
option, and puts a check in it. I've tried various ways to remove it,
but haven't been able).
Hit Finish.
I enter NO more code in.
click on Build, Compile. And that's when I get that error.
The first time round, do Build | Build Solution. You are trying to =
compile a single file that uses precompiled headers, but first another =
file needs to be compiled (usually called stdafx.cpp) that generates =
these same precompiled headers.
If you don't want to use precompiled headers, set Project | Properties | =
C/C++ | Precompiled Headers | Create/Use Precompiled Headers = Not =
Using Precompiled Headers.
