The Support of Visual Studio must be updatet.

Assigning to me, investigating.

Installing VS 2012, will follow up.

Cannot replicate with svn current.
Builds without errors In VS 2012 + Windows 7.

1) File > Open: <FLTK_DIR>\ide\VisualC2010\fltk.sln
2) When prompted, hit 'Update' button (converts 2010 -> 2012 project)
3) Change "Debug" -> "Release"
4) In "Solution Explorer", right click on "Solution 'fltk' (79 projects)", choose "Build Solution"
5) Builds, no warnings or errors.

What's the error that's preventing you from building?

OK, so this seems to be the error causing your build problems:

6>c:\users\mariusz\downloads\fltk-1.3.2\fl\gl.h(60):
fatal error C1083: File (Include) couldn't open: "GL/gl.h":
No such file or directory

gl.h should be part of the VS install. On my system it's in:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.0\include\um\gl\gl.h
..which is part of the INCLUDE path in VS 2012. e.g.

Start ->
   All Programs ->
     Microsoft Studio 2012 ->
       Visual Studio Tools ->
         Developer Command prompt..

and then in the resulting DOS window, to see what the INCLUDE directories are:

----
C:\>echo %INCLUDE%
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\VC\INCLUDE;
C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.0\include\shared;

Check your VS install. FWIW, others have run into this.. not sure the cause:

I should add: I installed VS 2012 yesterday; I downloaded the VS2012_WDX_ENU.iso, burned it to a CD, and installed it.

No extra steps, other than the 'registration' steps to get a
"registration key".

There are other VS compilers installed on this machine, though I wouldn't
think there'd be crosstalk between them.

Close, Thanks it works. Although I think it should be documentated that you need the Visual Studio Edition for Windows Desktop because I only had it for Windows 8.

OK -- I don't think anyone knew there was a dependence one way or
the other.

Apparently the available 'products' for VS 2012 Express are:

    Express For Web
    Express for Windows 8
    Express For Windows Desktop
    Express For Windows Phone
    Team Foundation Server Express

I definitely used the "Windows Desktop" choice, not knowing any better
other than everything else sounded wrong for my situation.

I'm surprised that there's a special "Windows 8" version of the
compiler, and that this version apparently lacks opengl support
(from the sound of it).

Is it really the case the Windows 8 version of VS has no GL?

Seems so because I think it is intended to develop Windows 8 apps for the app store.
