      Hi,
      I am using Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition and I'm just trying to compile Cinema's SDK so I can begin learning to develop plugins in C++. As soon as I open the workspace into VC++ 2005 and compile it I get the following error:
      c:\program files\cinema\9.521\resource\_api\c4d_pmain.cpp(5) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'windows.h': No such file or directory
      Now, I have searched the forum for a 'windows.h' error but I shouldn't be getting these errors just trying to simply compile the SDK. I am also getting a linking error:
      LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'odbc32.lib'
      So, I'm thinking that something might need to be altered in VC++ 2005 to allow Cinema to compile correctly. Has anyone ran into similar problems?
      Thanks in advance for any help.
      Josh

        One suggestion off the top of my head is to go to the main page here (Home link above) and open the PDF under "Cinema 4D goes 64-bit" (the link is "migration information"). Although this is for 64-bit plugins, it discusses an issue with Visual Studio 2005 (which may also occur in Express Edition). Go to Page 4 of the PDF, starting at the middle of the page.

          Visual C++ Express Edition does not include the Platform SDK. You will need it to develop "native" applications.
          For instructions, open the VC++ 2005 Help and search for "Platform SDK".
