How to compile?

Reported by Keith | February 11th, 2011 @ 08:33 PM

I am moving my help request into a new issue:

The question was posted here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/notepad-plus/forums/forum/331753/t...

Is there any chance that there would ever be a packaged release of Notepad++ Community Release? I have no idea how to compile the program.

I did the following:

1/ Cloned github repository onto local computer.
2/ Download/install Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition. Start program.
3/ Go to File -> Open --> Project/Solution.  Open file notepadPlus.9.sln
4/ Go to Build -> Build Solution.
5/ Get error messages that I don't understand

What am I missing? Thanks!

Here's the output:
