It is probably that. I have not tried yet, but I will this afternoon. It must have been an obvious thing to do, but I am not dealing with Visual Studio almost at all and I am totally new to this, so, thank you for pointing that out. :) ☆PhistucK On Sat, Nov 21, 2009 at 17:12, Dominic Jodoin

OK, so I am trying with Visual C++ 2005 Express. After working around most of the errors, I got one (hopefully...) left - fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file ‘atl.lib’ chrome_dll The last error that I resolved before that, was almost the same, but “atlz” instead of “atl” in the file name. So I

Hey Brad! I just wanted to let you know that this is working great for me on VC++ 2008 Express Edition. Thanks a lot! I have updated my page to reflect your change. I also added a patch that modifies some GYP files in such a way that you won’t have to manually “play” with the project settings in

That's good to hear! I see you are mainly just turning off warnings as errors in a few spots. Is this something that we can either gate in the build based on some flag, or are the warnings something that we could fix properly in the source? I'd love to peel off more steps from the process.

I am using Visual Studio 2005 (Express) and I downloaded the Windows SDK 7 websetup - it mentions there Visual C++ Compilers and in the description, it says Installs the Visual C++ 9.0 Compilers. Do I need it? Besides the fact the it is 200+ MBs, it just seems weird, since 2005 is 8.0. ☆PhistucK
