How to make exe for VS.NET (vc++)

[rizunb]

Hello guys

I have writen a Visual C++ program using OPENGL in VS.NET. Now I have all these .cpp and .header files properly working. Now I want to create an executable. How do I do that?. Also I started my VC++ as an empty project I dont know if that matters in making in exe or not.

I am sure you guys know and it must be very easy to create an executable. I will appreciate any help

Thanks

Project->Build Solution

Something like that will compile all the files in your project and link them all together to produce a single executable file.

If you know you've gotten it working correctly, I have to believe that you've already created the exe. If you want to redistribute it, just change it to release mode and rebuild it like salem said. Then in your project directory in both the bin and obj folders there should be a Release folder, which will contain the exe.

Hmm, it seems strange that the exe would be in there twice. Anyone know why this is?
