Any pointers, guys. This was working fine (under v66). Since installing v69, I can no longer compile under either environment.

I've tried "remove the build" folder trick.

Help!

e.g. trying to build blobmonster:

Maybe it's bad form to reply to your own posts? Anyhow, the following blog post fixed it for me - the key bit is

"My problem was solved when I went to the project properties, under Linker then Manifest File, change Generate Manifest to No."

Recompiling then worked..

Hope this helps someone someday..
