I want to thank everyone who helped me with getting the viewer to compile.
I also want to post this here for future reference, and anyone else
having trouble.
First, I have been successful in compiling a viewer, and running it
from within VS2005.
Here is what I did:
1. I uninstalled all the Python interpreters that were installed.
2. I installed Python 2.7.1. This time, I installed the 64-bit
version that I had overlooked earlier.
3. I had to manually add the path to the Python directory.
I ran:
python develop.py -G VC80
and after it did a few things including verifying that VS was
working, I had an error message that the python interpreter couldn't be found.
I stumbled across http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Talk:CMake and
found a solution by adding
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Python\\PythonCore\\2.7\\InstallPath]
to my \linden\indra\cmake\Python.cmake file.
At this point, I was successful in running python develop.py -G VC80,
but I did have 1 error message about not finding devenv.com, which I
was able to find with no effort, so I don't know why the error came
up. Ignoring it, I went on with the steps in the wiki, and I was
successful in building 1.23.4, and runing a debug version without
debugging, and successfully logged-on to the grid.
I don't know if the devenv.com is going to come back and bite me.
