I don't recall ever having had trouble building DLLs with VC++2005 Express. Did you follow the instructions for installing the Platform SDK and modifying VC++'s config files, as outlined here? http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/visualc/usingpsdk/ That's step 4 of the main VC++2005 Express install instructions, which are here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/visualc/download/ That last link also has a link to the VC++2005 Express Service Pack 1, which I also installed. If you have done all this, then I don't know. You could try it again, see if any of the build configs for OSG have changed since you last tried. Note that I first tried with the Express Edition about 3 months ago (before the X-Mas vacation) and it worked for me then as well. So I honestly don't know what the problem could be on your side. All this is described at the Platform Specifics - Visual Studio wiki page. Each time I recompile, if I need to change anything I update that page. If you find out what the problem was on your side, you could add a note to that page describing what you had to change to make it work.
