-Visual C++ 6.0 project files are included for the test programs in the /tests/Windows/ directory.  These projects compile API support for both ASIO and DirectSound.  Version 4.0 of RtAudio was tested with the .net compiler and it will not compile in Visual C++ 6.0 because of its non-conformance to modern C++ standards.
