Again, very simple: a pure VS2005 (commercial) with all the service packs + hotfixs, addng the current rendition of the 2008/ VISTA SDK will give you problems. Now if they are other "after the fact" gotchas, thats a different story, but when I see, there are 2008/VISTA SDK dependencies and from what I can see, for concepts that are most definitely doable with such a dependency. > We have some vista specific stuff in our code, and we need to use the > vista headers to use that. Like what? I only see two things and its definitely WIN32 compatible with the 2008/VISTA SDK. It just to use a easy syntax made possible under this newer SDK but totally unnecessary. > For example we use functions like SHOpenFolderAndSelectItems that are > not defined in SDK before vista.

Obviously, because the same functionality applies for other OSes before VISTA. You (speaking in general) choose to use something that wasn't required. > If you want your app to use new features of Vista, you need to use the > Vista SDK. So you made a decision that CHROME is for VISTA only? I am not out to make false statements - only what is experienced and what I see in front in me. This is all deja-vu as with the PHP people who "thought" they had it all correct with VS 200X building and in the end it was not when I came into the scene.. It the same thing here. What you are failing to understand that development is not isolated to CHROME only and people need to have the proper enviromment across the board. You guys well, how should I saw it politely? KLUDGING a compile! In any case, what about this error? g:\files\browsers\chrome\trunk\src\third_party\webkit\webcore\svg \SVGElement.h(32) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'SVGNames.h': No such file or directory Is this also related to the VS vs SDK situation?
