Compiling Avesta 7.6 compiling in Vistual Studio, how to fix redefinition errors?

[Propus]

Hi there,

I downloaded the Avesta 7.6 source and i'm trying to compile it using Visual Studio 2010. The problem is that I keep getting redefinition errors, I can't figure out where the problem is. I googled a bit and found out that it might be because the newest boost versions make use of the stdint.h in VS and include it after the int typedefs have been made.
The 7.6 was probably built using an older Boost version.

To make a long story short: what modifications should I make in the source to get rid of this particular error?

1>C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\include\stdint.h(19): error C2371: 'int32_t' : redefinition; different basic types
1>          c:\users\ap\downloads\source_v4\source\definitions.h(166) : see declaration of 'int32_t'

Try download an older version of Visual Studio.

Yea well, that's a workaround. I want to know why it's giving this error in VS2010 and I would rather learn how to fix it than downloading an older version of VS.

Try to remove those duplicate declarations from your definitions.h, I don't think it should break compiling if they're already defined
