It looks like you need to install an SDK as well: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Visual_Studio_Express#Visual_C.2B.2B_Express

Here are the errors that I am getting:

Stop.

Any thoughts or suggestions..??

I have a 32 bit XP box that I am compiling my new wireshark dissector on and everything is working fine.

I downloaded the free version of Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition. (I do not remember it giving me the option to install x64 compilers and tools)

I would like to compile a 64 bit version (on my same box using the *cross compilers*).

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\bin>*vcvarsx86_amd64.bat*
Setting environment for using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Beta2 x64 cross tools

But when I try and build it...I get the above error:

Thanks,
Brian

The Buildbot does this several times a day:

What errors are you seeing? When you installed Visual C++, did you make
sure "X64 Compilers and Tools" was checked?
