[omniORB] Compiling omniorb 3 on Windows

[Olaf Meding]

How do I compile omniorb 4.1.0 on Windows using (ActiveState) Python
2.3.5?

Note, I first used the omniorb Python and all compiled fine. Note, I
am using VS .NET 2003 (VS 7) on W2K.

Created a new source tree but this time w/o the omniorb Python.
Installed ActiveState Python 2.3.5.
I changed the config.mk file to use:
"platform = x86_win32_vs_7".
I changed the x86_win32_vs_7.mkto use:
"PYTHON = /cygdrive/c/Python23/python"

Doing a "make export" results in the below error:

You don't have the correct paths set up to find your compiler. Run the
vsvars32.bat batch file to set them up.

Cheers,
