    ?? Warning using Command Line Compile ??

    I just set up VS 2008 B2 and did a simple command line compile from the VS
    command prompt.

    I received this warning:

    warning CS1668: Invalid search path 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft
    SDKs\Windows\v6 .0A\lib' specified in 'LIB environment
    variable' -- 'The system cannot find the path specified. '

    When I checked, sure enough, the "lib" directory is not present'. Perhaps I
    selected some combination of installation options that resulted in the "lib"
    directory not being created.

    I was just wondering if anyone has seen this.

      Tom,

      I haven't seen it, but what is it that you are referencing that could be
      there?

      Also, if it is a warning that doesn't specify a directory, but it still
      compiles, then perhaps it is an error with the install/project, and you can
      modify the project properties to not include that path.

          I did a fresh install of VS 2008 B2. Then, I opened the VS command prompt
          and did a simple command-line compile of HelloWorld C# program.

          What's happening is the script that runs when I open a VS command prompt is
          setting the LIB environment variable to a directory that does not exist. The
          script I'm referring to is:

          %comspec% /k ""C:\Progra m Files\Microsoft Visual Studio
          9.0\VC\vcvarsal l.bat"" x86

          Also, if it is a warning that doesn't specify a directory, but it still
          compiles, then perhaps it is an error with the install/project, and you
          can modify the project properties to not include that path.
          As I said, there is no "project" to modify. The Microsoft script is setting
          the LIB variable to a directory that does not exist.
