Compiling MSLogonACL

[Sentax]

So I've tried my hardest to not post a question and to get the out of the box source to compile but I have to come here.

Here is my Build Log:

What is this wcstombs function? I've seen other topics out there mentioning Unicode. I'm not sure exactly what I need to change but I would expect that source from sourceforge would be ok and I wouldn't have to change anything to Unicode since that was seem to have been taken care of a while ago.

So. Someone please help me to get ultravnc compiled on VCC.

BTW. I have VCC 6.0, SP5, Processor Pack, and SDK installed with all settings changed to VCC and PATH variables set.

So, what next my friends?

The reference to NT 5 beta indicates that you either have an SDK that is too old or have not included the SDK correctly.
Make sure that the Include and Lib directories of the SDK are configured appropriately.
See [post=23461][/post] for more info.

wcstombs is WideCharStringToMultiByteString.
This is about Unicode conversion.
But it should compile without modifications once the SDK setup is OK.

You were exactly correct! Thank you!

Ok my problem was that I had the includes to the .Net 2003 Includes folder and not the Platform SDK Includes directory and the same for the Lib.

Wow sure does compile nice once everything is set!

Thanks!
