Thanks walter_senekal - your registry change works well. However for some unknown reason when it builds the DLL for the RTE version the DLL is not complete.
It doesn’t seem to like the vc71 directory created under the rte directory within the project. If I rename the output directory within the MSVC project settings to “vc6” it all works fine.
Hence I modified the bash script “wm_scs2vcproj” to change the OutPath value to
OutPath=“vc6”
Then it all works fine using Visual Studio 2005. Don’t know why it matters though. I modified the bash script so that any new projects will also work.
Hoping this helps everyone else as well.
