Ok, the road block you are hitting with the Express edition is the fact that we disable C++ exception handling.
One additional step: Open src\build\internal\essential.vsprops in notepad. Remove ";_HAS_EXCEPTIONS=0", exactly these characters without the quotes. Remove the whole line "ExceptionHandling="0"" Save the file Delete debug\ Start Visual Studio Express Edition, try again.
