I've gotten the sources from:

GUILauncher and CLILauncher refuse to build with Visual C++ 2008 Express
Edition (using Launchers.sln):

.\CLILauncher.rc(97) : error RC2135 : file not found:
C:\Users\Vinay\Projects\Launchers\launcher.ico

This is on Windows XP Pro, 32 bit.

There are a few compilation warnings as well:

.\launcher.c(59) : warning C4996: '_wgetenv': This function or variable
may be unsafe. Consider using _wdupenv_s instead. To disable
deprecation, use _CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS. See online help for details.

Associator builds (with the same warning displayed above). When checking
it's dependencies, I see it depends on MSVCR90.DLL. You've mentioned
that you use only "plain C and Win32 APIs"; would it be possible to
remove this dependency? That would make it possible to copy the
executable to a directory on the PATH, without having to worry about
installing the C(++) runtime.
