Nope - the old version required awk to -build- the sources. Now, awk is only needed to customize the .conf scripts, and in it's absense, well do it yourself by hand. awk's no longer required. The solution as mentioned several times is a custom-build step to invoke rc.exe, where none of the versions of visualstudio will corrupt the cmd. > Indeed the unix source builds fine with VC2005 IDE. So does the windows bundle; grab http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/apr/apr/trunk/build/cvtdsp.pl - and in the httpd-2.2.3 tree, just invoke perl cvtdsp.pl -2005 This won't be necessary in 2.2.4 - wouldn't have been in 2.2.3 if this security issue hadn't popped up.
