Hi,
I think changes were made to make WS compile with VS2008/VS2008EE after
branching of the 1.0.x branch. You are better of using trunk with VS2008.

But it seems that the version 1.0.4 can't recognize MSVC2008 in
config.nmake,
how can I modify the config.nmake?
should I modify other files for using MSVC 2008 professional instead of MSVC
2008 EE?
Thank you very much.
