Failure to build LM-X SDK under Windows Vista
For Windows Vista, you can build the LMX-SDK only if you have administrative privileges because of User Account Control (UAC). This is a security precaution introduced for better Windows security.
If you do not have administrative privileges, running nmake may result in an error similar to the following:
Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility Version 8.00.50727.762 Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved. ... if exist lib\lcodedata_mdd.obj del lib\lcodedata_mdd.obj if exist lib\lcodedata.c del lib\lcodedata.c cd lib ..\lmxdev -genlinkfile ..\config\xformation.lmx NMAKE : fatal error U1045: spawn failed : No error Stop.
To resolve this issue, make sure you have administrative privileges.
