[krbdev.mit.edu #5549] KFW 3.2 Beta 2 compilation error on VS2005: C2757 error

There are a couple of issues with 2003. The big issues are that the
debugging tools don't work well on vista and my main reason for rebuilding
the libraries at all is to have better debugging symbols between the library
and the rest of the application. Also 64-bit support is better in 2005 (I
know there are 64bit issues elsewhere). The current platform SDK tools also
have the same problem as 2005 (I tried a build path that used the vista PSDK
without VS2005 in the path).

What is involved in building without the credential cache (i.e. building the
subset that can be built on 2005)?


Thanks

Yes, that would be a mistake.  VS2005 can be used to build everything
but the
credential cache.

Are you aware of issues with VS2003's generated code and Vista?
Or is your concern simply that VS2003's IDE doesn't run well on Vista.
Primarily it has lots of issues with Vista's User Access Control.
