VS 2008 _vsnprintf declaration conflict

Hello, I am trying to compile zone with VS 2008 Express for the first time, and ran into the following error:

Code:

Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\include\stdio.h(358) : error C3163:

'_vsnprintf': attributes inconsistent with previous declaration

        C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio

9.0\VC\include\stdio.h(350) : see declaration of '_vsnprintf'

I can't find this previous declaration that is causing a conflict!

Any ideas?

Thanks for any help! :)

I was trying to get EQEmu to compile at the weekend with 2008 express. To get around this particular problem, based on the info in this post:

I did a Find/Replace in files and replaced all occurrences of:

#define vsnprintf _vsnprintf

with nothing, i.e. delete all occurrences of that #define.

It seems the vsnprintf function was called _vsnprintf in previous versions of Visual C++, hence the need for that define.

Thanks, Derision. I did a similar thing. In types.h I commented out that line and it compiled. However, it doesn't run properly, so I've reverted back to 2005 for now.
