No plugins or anything of the like, it was a "clean" install solely to build WebKit. Yesterday I stripped my machine of VS2005 and the platform SDK and then re-installed. It now successfully compiles... I can only guess there was some conflict between VS2005 and VS2008 which I removed more than a month ago. Initially when I was asked to look into WebKit the express edition of VS2005 was no longer available and I had to get the VS2008 version. Trying to resolve issues with that build (being unfamiliar with the process) was difficult so the company purchased a copy of VS2005. I installed VS2005 to compare with VS2008 expecting it to just work since that was the current development platform. I removed VS2008 and all references (environment variables, etc) but still could not compile with VS2005. Deleting the WebKitBuild directory, even clean check-out of the entire code-base still left me with these errors. I can only guess that early builds with VS2008 may have effected files outside of WebKit, perhaps with the platform SDK (although it seems unlikely). I really appreciate the responses from Brent and David to help me work through these issues. It was painfully frustrating to fail when everything pointed that it "should just work". Thanks again, Mike

So I'm pretty confused by this. Do you have any plugins that might be affecting the way things are compiled? BoundsChecker, or something like that? -Brent
