Change base numbering in Visual Studio
Change base numbering in Visual Studio
- Hello everyone and thanks for the help ahead of time. I am a professor teaching C++ at a University. Many of the students are using Visual Studio and we have just come across a problem that I cannot figure out how to fix. I have searched the help documentation and I can't find any mention of this. Somehow the student changed the default numbering scheme of Visual Studio to base 8 numbering and has no idea how this happened. I need to know where I can change that back to base 10 as all of the ints are currently considering numbers to be base 8. If he attempts to set a value such as 80 into an int he gets a compiler error stating that 8 is undefined in base 8 numbering. If anyone has any idea how to fix this it would be much appreciated. If you need any further information please let me know.

- Hi Dducharme,
Welcome to MSDN forums. And thank you for your post.
Some clarification with you:
What's the exact error message when you compile your C++ project?
Could you please post the related source code when this error occurs?
Best regards,
