Hi,

I was building vbox (4.0.1_OSE)  from the main svn trunk and it refuses to
build on Windows host. I followed the build instructions mentioned
here (http://forum.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=10&p=155621
<http://forum.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=10&p=155621>),
  here (http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Windows%20build%20instructions) and

you are not the only one who doesn't manage ... but I don't know of anyone
outside Oracle who manages, either.


I know one person who can build VirtualBox on Windows host, and is not
related to Oracle.

Huihong Luo. (from VMlite)


If you manage to get EXACTLY the mentioned tools it should be a piece of cake to get VirtualBox compiled. The biggest problem at the moment is that the compiler version is quite dated, and getting them from Microsoft is effectively impossible. It's on our todo list to make things easier to build on Windows, preferrably with tools which can be readily downloaded for free.
