[libxml++] Problem building xml++-2.6 in windows (VS2008) with gendef tool generating a runtime error

["M&M" <goncalo magno gmail com>]

Hello,

I'm just starting with libxml++, but already got into trouble... When I try to build the library I get this error:

Error    1    error PRJ0019: A tool returned an error code from "Generate libxml++ def file"    xml++-2.6    xml++-2.6

As far as I understand, this is gendef tool that is failing (called as a Pre-link Event) after compilation and before linking. About gendef I am sure that was built without even a warning, however when called in xml++-2.6 project it generates an error. I've checked how it is called, and here it is:

$(SolutionDir)gendef\$(ConfigurationName)\gendef $(ConfigurationName)\$(InputName).def $(TargetFileName) $(IntDir)\*.obj $(IntDir)\exceptions\*.obj $(IntDir)\io\*.obj $(IntDir)\nodes\*.obj $(IntDir)\parsers\*.obj $(IntDir)\validators\*.obj

I have also tried to execute this command from the command line (substituting each macro by its value), and I got an exception error and this message in command line:

'dumpbin' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

Any idea of what might be the problem?

Thanks in advance,
Gonçalo
