Hi Brady,
Are you able to use Visual Studio 2005? I'm wondering if the conversion
to 2008 is setting up your project incorrectly.
Also, are you using Visual Studio 2008 Express or a professional version?
Be aware that though it may be possible to configure the project
correctly in Visual Studio 2008, it is has not been tested by us and is
not supported at this time for adaptor development. Because of this,
you may or may not run into other issues should you get your Visual
Studio 2008 project working.

I followed all the instructions and created a new win32 project using Visual C++ 2008 and then added the existing project 'imaqadaptorkit_vc8', (developed using Microsoft Visual C++ 2005) to the solution file of the current project. After adding the required source and module definition files to the current project when I tried building the project and I got the following error message.

Instead it has include and lib, containing some header files, which were stored under two folders called 'Derivable Classes' and 'Interfaces and Tools' in the Visual C++ solution file. After building a solution for this project a Debug folder was created to hold to buildlog.htm
