Hi Gertjan,

Thanks for trying it.

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

Somewhere there's an absolute path where it should be relative - I'll get on it.

> There are a few compilation warnings as well:
> 
> .\launcher.c(59) : warning C4996: '_wgetenv': This function or variable

This is a security related warning which I think can be ignored - we only ever
read environment values, never write them, so making a private copy via _wdupenv
isn't really needed IMO. I don't disable the warning because it would disable
all security-related warnings.

I noticed this too, and later builds of associator have the library linked in
statically.

If you get any more issues, you can post them on the BitBucket issue tracker -
they are probably OT for here, unless design/PEP related.
