Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Problem with recommended Makefile.nmake

While building a plugin on Windows with Wireshark 1.6.0, I'm trying to follow directions provided in README.plugins. With the recommended content of \plugins\myudp\Makefile.nmake (attachment Recommended_Makefile.nmake) I'm getting compilation errors as shown in attachment CompilationErrors.txt. However, if use a different Makefile.nmake (attachment Modified_Makefile.nmake), the compilation is successful.

Can somebody help to figure out what's wrong with using the recommended Makefile.nmake?

Thanks

        "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\BIN\nmake.exe" /                   -f Makefile.nmake
