Re: [Csnd] [EXTERNAL] [Csnd] How to get started with the API

I have a fundamental question about how all this works.

I’m up and running in Visual Studio. I added the path to csound64/lib and added it to linker input, and I added the path to the csound header files to the C++ include directories.

I’m reading /chapter: A-The-Csound-Api / CSOUND. This is the source code. If argc and argv represent command line arguments, how do I run this from an IDE?

In the project settings, you can configure what happens when the program runs. You can add command line args to the field outlined below…

or you can fire up the command-line and run the program from there. Probably more flexible that way.
