I've been using MetaKit very successfully with VC++ and haven't had any
trouble with it.
If you're having compilation errors for passing in c4_View, it's likely
that you didn't include the metakit header files in the right place.
What I usually do is a forward class declaration in my header file and
then include the metakit header files in the cpp file.
So your .h file would have
class c4_View;
class myclass {
myclass(c4_View &view);
~myclass();
};
And your .cpp file would include the <mk4.h> files.
If you want to post or e-mail back more details, I'll see if I can help
you.
