Is it possible to change the visual studio 2015 compiler to Cygwin the ide is nice I would just like a different compiler.

Not directly, but you can use CMake to generate both Cygwin and Visual Studio projects. Write code in Visual Studio, build the Cygwin build via CMake. Only downside: updates to the Visual Studio .vcxproj file aren't sync'ed back to the CMakelist.txt file.

I needed a library for my project that would cover CANFIS functionalities and Fuzzylitex does that. But the problem is, I don't know how to build this project? I am familiar with cmake files but this project has Makefile and I cannot work with it? I am using Visual Studio 2015.
Thanks to the comments, I found out about the difference between Makefile and Cmake files. The tool that can be used to make a project with Makefile in Visual Studio, is NMAKE.EXE. It is built in for Visual Studio. All you need to do is to open the visual studio command prompt (tools -> Visual Studio Command Prompt) and go to the directory of the Makefile and type "nmake" and press enter. The problem just begins here! There is a good chance that you will get errors. Anyway, this is the solution to my problem. Also, this is a good tutorial on using NMAKE.

I'm a very beginner in Programming.
Visual Studio shows an error "the system cannot find the file specified" in C++ when I add two or more C++ files under Source Files.
I reinstalled visual studio 2019 and still getting the same errors.
Single C++ files run smoothly.
It's not able to find the executable Project1.exe because your program didn't compile successfully which is probably due to the two main functions you have defined.

I need to read a mat file in a Visual Studio project. I'm using Visual Studio 2015 32bit on Windows 10 64 bit.
I have installed a MatFileHandler library using NuGet Package Manager and got a MatFileHandler.dll file but I don't know how to use it. In program I've written use MatFileHandler but linker does not see this. Please don't judge me, I'm very new to Visual Studio.
MatFileHandler library is not a native C++ dll. It's .NET assembly and it depends on .NETStandard 2.0.
You should create .NET application and add this NuGet package to it. Here is the step-by-step instruction on how to create .NET Core application.

There isn't any books in my library on XAML only C++. I want to know if there's a way to make a Win32 program in C++ 64 bit without dealing with XAML and Visual Studio. I want to only use Windows Notepad. Where do I start?
I found it! The windows.h file is in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.1A\Include and I downloaded the C++ compiler, Clang.
