How to compile scintilla in windows?
<p>I never compiled any open source project in Windows. I want to compile Scintilla on windows in Visual Studio or in any other way. Pleas write a step by step instruction to compile it.</p>

<p>I have googled for last 2 week but could not get any tutorial/guide. Please help.</p>

<p>I tried to compile in windows as per the instruction provided in README file in scintilla source  and got following error.</p>

<p>D:\scintilla\win32>nmake -f scintilla.mak</p>

<pre><code>    rc -fo.\ScintRes.res ScintRes.rc
</code></pre>

<p>ScintRes.rc(5) : fatal error RC1015: cannot open include file 'windows.h'.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'rc' : return code '0x1'
Stop.</p>

<p>My OS is windows xp. I am using visual studio 2005 and also have installed Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2.</p>
