[Bf-committers] Compiling using VC toolkit.

[Elam Daly]

Howdy all,

I have recently downloaded the latest CVS tree for blender including the 
appropriate /lib directories for windows and am trying to compile as per 
the instructions at 
http://www.blender3d.org/cms/Microsoft_VC___Toolkit_2003.276.0.html
This is the error I'm getting...

rc /DWIN32 /D_CONSOLE /DWITH_QUICKTIME /D_LIB /DUSE_OPENAL 
/DFTGL_LIBRARY_STATIC
  /DGAMEBLENDER=1 /DUSE_SUMO_SOLID /DNDEBUG /DNAN_BUILDINFO /DBUILD_DATE 
/I\usr\include /fosource\icons\winblender.res source\icons\winblender.rc

Warning .......................

An ID was not evaluated and was assumed to be a name:-

Error!
Line 1 of Resource Script (source\icons\winblender.RC):-
Could not find file:-

RES file not made
OBJ file not made
scons: *** [source\icons\winblender.res] Error 1
scons: building terminated because of errors.

The icon files are there but my knowlege of rc scripts is weak.  Has 
anyone else had problems building for XP using the tookkit?

Thanks,
Elam
