It's a classic Visual Studio issue. You have to install the service pack to fix it. See here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/7dz62kfh%28v=vs.110%29.aspx

I’ve been trying to install OPENCV 2.4.13.6 into a GPU-equipped Windows10 machine (CUDA9.0, VS2015, cmake3.10.0 have already been installed).
Though trying to install the opencv 2.4 by referring to https://jamesbowley.co.uk/build-compile-opencv-3-4-in-windows-with-cuda-9-0-and-intel-mkl-tbb/, I got following error.

CMake configuring fails. "cl.exe is not able to compile a simple test program"
Why does fatal error "LNK1104: cannot open file 'C:\Program.obj'" occur when I compile a C++ project in Visual Studio?
I would sincerely appreciate for your kind instruction to solve this issue.
There seems to be an error when generating VS2010 projects from premake, even with the "Hello World" example (Also tried with clink (here) and premake itself)
hello.c
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void) {
puts("Hello, word!");
return 0;
}
premake4.lua
-- premake4.lua
solution "HelloWorld"
configurations "Any"
project "HelloWorld"
kind "ConsoleApp"
language "C"
files "*.c"
defines { "DEBUG" }
flags { "Symbols" }
This simple example fails to link with the message "LINK : fatal error LNK1123: failure during conversion to COFF: file invalid or corrupt"
The logfile says:

SOLVED!!
It was an error in my pristine VS2010 install!! See
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/d10adba0-e082-494a-bb16-2bfc039faa80/vs2012-rc-installation-breaks-vs2010-c-projects?forum=vssetup
Although i never installed anything but VS2010 ..
SOLUTION: From this page:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/heaths/archive/2011/04/01/visual-c-2010-sp1-compiler-update-for-the-windows-sdk-7-1.aspx

I have my project converted from vc6 to vs2008。 When i rebuild it under "debug" mode, an link error occurs. " fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'mfc42.lib'".
I donot know why.
why the compiler would link against 'mfc42.lib'?
Isn't it supposed to link against 'mfc42d.lib' ??
I have checked my project properties. See the followings:
C/C++:

when I compared these command lines to another project converted from vc6 to vs2008 and they appear similiarly. However, that project (not current one) is able to run correctly under 'debug' mode.
It is rather confusing , who can help me?
I have a large VC++ project developed in Visual Studio 2010 that I need to be able to build from the command line using CL.exe. In the IDE, the project builds successfully, but I haven't been able to build it on the command line.
I've mostly dealt with linker errors and have gotten it down to one:
LINK : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _WinMainCRTStartup
C:\<path_to>\Debug\LargeProject.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals
I found in the debug folder a file called "LargeProject.log" that shows the precise command line arguments that get called from the IDE when the IDE builds. I've listed them here, if it helps.
(See edit notes at bottom of this question for some updates)

As you can see, I ran each of these in sequence (until I got an error) and dumped the contents to testDump.txt. Here's testDump.txt's contents after the first link.exe command
LINK : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _WinMainCRTStartup
C:\<path_to>\Debug\LargeProject.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals
I'm confused that I'm getting this error on the command line, but not from the IDE, which is presumably just running these commands behind the scenes. It's also worth noting that I've run the vcvars32.bat file from my command prompt window, so it can't be a local environment variable issue.
Edit:
I've tried adding msvcrt.lib to the list of libraries in the link command. This produced a new linker error:
msvcrt.lib(crtexew.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _WinMain#16 referenced in function ___tmainCRTStartup
C:\<path_to>\Debug\LargeProject.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals
I've read that this means the proper entry point wasn't defined in the project. ie, that there should be a WinMain() function in the project to serve as the the entry point for the application. That seems logical, but I haven't found that function and, to reiterate, the project compiles and links fine in the IDE, and presumably the log file I got these commands from is merely listing what the IDE was doing anyway.
There seem to be other CRT libraries. I tried msvcprt.lib, but that yeilded an identical error message to before I had added anything. The other similar .lib files that exist are msvcmrt.lib,msvcmrtd,msvcprtd,msvcrtd,msvcurt,and msvcurtd. What are the differences between these library files, and how does someone choose which one to use?
I had the same error and I know how to fix it.
In your project, you choose a non GUI project : it is a mistake and to fix it choose (I dont known the exact names, I use VS in French)
option->Link options->System->Sub-système=Windows
and it should work
I have developed a DLLin c++ using visual studio 2008. I want to run static code analysis on it using a tool which requires me to compile it on command line.
How can i use cl.exe to achieve this.

Instead of calling the compiler executable directly and passing all those options manually, you can simply call MSVC, and pass the project file on the command line.
devenv.com MyProject.sln /Build "Release|x86_64" /Project MyLib
In my copy of MSVS v8, devenv.com can be found in C:\Programs\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE. Call devenv.com /? for a list of options.
From the Tools menu select the option Visual Studio 2008 Command Prompt ?
