Building DLL for FDK API

Question

In the FDK Programmer's Guide, it says
<quote> 
Compiling and registering your own FDK clients
With Code Generation still selected, choose Single-Threaded from the Runtime Library
popup list.

However, in Visual Studio, there are only 4 options for Multi-threaded and no option for Single-threaded.  I'm running Visual Studio Express 2010, v10.0.30319.1.  The instructions are quite detailed, so I think I am looking in the correct place.
Any suggestions?

Hi fmEveryDay,
First, sorry for the delay. I like fm Every Day too but it was a three-day US holiday and I stayed away from the computer.
Indeed, the documentation is out of date. Assuming FDK11, you need to set this to "Multi-threaded DLL (/MD)". That is the correct setting and no other setting will work. Older versions of the FDK use a different setting, but I'm guessing you are on FDK11.
It can be tricky to get a project set up correctly, so let me know how it goes. I use Express version 2010 as well, so I know it can work. I seem to recall something about a requirement to manually create a resource file when using Express. But I'll leave it here for now and see how you get along.
