Compilation problems under MS Visual Studio 2005

[MarkoSan]

Hello!

I am trying to compile the latest trunk which I gor from svn directory. I use MS Visual Studio 2005 Proffesional and once I try to compile warzone project, i get:

------ Rebuild All started: Project: Warzone2100, Configuration: Debug Win32 ------

What is wrong?

do you have the correct version of bison/flex installed?

I never used MSVC to compile .l or .y files,I just use bison/flex manually to compile them into .c and .h files.

edit:
I think it's the same problem:

I will have a look and try to find out what causes this...
Currently I am a bit confused, as it worked flawlessly without any problems here, right from the minute I got the BuildRules from MS...
For now: Bison 1.8 and Flex 2.5 should be installed, especially Bison < 2.2 is known to not work.
