 I downloaded Clp-1.14.1.zip, extracted it, double clicked
 Clp-1.14.1\Clp\MSVisualStudio\v9\Clp.sln to open up Visual Studio 9, made
 'clp' the default project, and tried to build the project. (I also tried
 batch-building everything, and switching to release and then to debug.) I
 get the errors for the clp project shown in the following output:

 Any suggestions? I want to use CLP within !OpenSolver.org, but I need to
 be able to load .lp files which doesn't work in the pre-compiled CLP
 binary for Win32. Thanks,

Comment:

 It's hard to say when someone will get around to this. There was major
 change to the configuration include files to accommodate standard unix
 packaging requirements and that broke the Visual Studio solution files.
 The v10 (VS2010) files should work, but it's difficult to say when (if)
 someone will get around to patching the v9 files. The best advice I can
 offer (from a Solaris box :-) is to check the files used in the v10 builds
 and look at the preprocessor defines. Adjust the v9 project files to match
 the v10 files.

 As for the examples, I'm not sure I ever bothered to make all of them
 work.

 > PS: I am running Vista

 You have my sympathy  :-)
