I've used VS2008 on my development machine for some years now, with windows SDK v7.1.
I've installed VS2010, and it's using the Windows SDK v7.0a, but I need it to use the Windows 7.1 SDK (which I had installed prior to installing VS2010).
When I run the Windows SDK 7.1 configuration tool, to switch the Windows SDK in use, the tool updates for VS2008, but not for VS2010. The message it reports is:
"The Windows SDK Configuration Tool has successfully set Windows SDK version v7.1 as the current version for Visual Studio 2008"
The configuration tool is installed with the Windows 7.1 SDK and is found here:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.1\Setup\WindowsSdkVer.exe"
VS2010 continues to use WSDK 7.0a, which extremely frustrating, as I need to do DirectShow development (so I need to build the baseclasses, which aren't released with 7.0a release of WSDK).
Would I be correct in assuming that it's not updating VS2010 settings because VS2010 wasn't installed at the time that I installed Windows 7.1 SDK?
Can I fix this manually, or should I uninstall Windows 7.1 SDK, then reinstall it?
Any other suggestions / workarounds for this?
