For some time I've been unable to build svn with Visual Studio 2003. I think this is due to the solution not being kept up to date with the various new dependencies and source files. I'm suprised noone else has mentioned this (am I seriously the only person in the world using VS2003?) so is it just my build tree that's screwed?

Errors building r20877:

• c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7\PlatformSDK\Include\cfgmgr32.h(23) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'cfg.h': No such file or directory
  
• \xbmc\cores\dvdplayer\DVDPlayerAudioResampler.h(23): fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'samplerate.h': No such file or directory
  
• XBMC_PC fatal error C1083: Cannot open source file: 'xbmc\cores\paplayer\paplayer_linux.cpp': No such file or directory
  

Changes that fix some of these:

• add 'xbmc\lib\libsamplerate\src' to the project configuration "additional include directories"
  
• remove 'paplayer_linux.cpp' from the project source tree
  

Anyone know what else needs to be done?

U one of the few which uses it and you are right

I thought VS2003 was only for the skin test version of the win32 builds? I stopped using it months ago and instead use the free VS2008 Express and most of my build issues went away.

In trunk vs2003 is used for the skin test build afaik. In linux branch vs2003 and vs2008 are building the same xbmc binary. vs2003 is still used for libs and dlls to only be dependent on msvc?71.dll's but this might change in future.

Thanks WiSo, for reference linuxport svn now builds fine in VS2003 (r20914).
