It looks like the SDK is already installed. I also installed the 360 mb 
MSDN library..... What am I missing here...???



Thanks,

Here are the errors that I am getting:

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,

The linker error message is telling you that one of the object files or libraries you are attempting to link together in helen.dll is compiled for the wrong machine type.  The error seems to point to the MSVCR90.DLL being the problem.  Are you trying to link with the 32 bit version?
