[vbox-dev] compiling error (__alloca_probe_16)

[Huihong Luo]

I tried to use  _alloca, still same error. Also tried wdk version 6001.18002, still got the error.
 
What is your wdk version?
 
Thanks,

This builds fine here. Perhaps you are using a combination of VCC and
WDK which does not fit together? Google shows some hits when searching
for "__alloca_probe_16 unresolved external".

You could also try to replace alloca in

  src/VBox/Runtime/common/string/stringalloc.cpp

by _alloca.

Kind regards,
