Yes I fixed that. Thanks! Now it works :D

Thanks for the clarity.

So I have modified my code in this way:

#include "stdafx.h"
#include "ros.h"
#include <string>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <Windows.h>
#include <std_msgs\String.h>

int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR * argv[])
{
    ros::NodeHandle nh;
    char *ros_master = "*.*.*.*";

    printf("Connecting to server at %s\n", ros_master);
    nh.initNode(ros_master);

    printf("Advertising cmd_vel message\n");
    std_msgs::String sent;
    ros::Publisher cmd_vel_pub("try", &sent);
    nh.advertise(cmd_vel_pub);
    while (1) {
        sent.data = "Hello robot";
        cmd_vel_pub.publish(&sent);
        nh.spinOnce();
        Sleep(10);
    }
    printf("All done!\n");
    return 0;
}

But it has not builded yet. Now I have errors related to Windows socket or stuff like that.

Can't understand why. I have included all the libraries I need to.

I am sorry, didn't know exactly how works ROS, that's why.

Ok I will try... thanks for the help. But I would like to know why the code above doesn't work...

I need to send the coordinates of hands taken with LeapMotion and head taken with HTC Vive to the linux machine. Actually I don't need to use Visual Studio, it is just to start to understand ROS. I would use Unity and C# instead of C++.
