Hi, The project in common/nb_native/nbproject does not have a build configuration for Windows. The project itself should still be usable for browsing the code, but it might require some changes to make it build correctly. If you have a NetBeans / SolarisStudio installation on Windows and want to make the changes required to add a build configuration for Windows I'd be happy to sponsor the change.
