How can I use precompiled headers and juce? When I use them all of my files compile, but juce files get tons of errors starting with:

[code]juce\_audio\_basics.cpp. '#include “AppConfig.h” : skipped when looking for precompiled header use

etc…  
[/code]  
On Windows 8 and VS 2010 with latest stable juce source, not the current work in progress

Thanks

exclude the JUCE source files from using precompiled headers, you can do that on per-file basis in VS. I do that and it works.

Thanks and that is what I thought. I was hoping for a simpler method, but at least this works.
