There are some strange link errors as followings, my system is vista+sp1 and vs2008,but I even built project successfully on another window-xp system.

Generally it happens when you have a release version of libxml and you compiled nel in debug.

Hi vl,
No matter debug mode or release mode ,I always account this link error , I am not sure if I have to rebuild libxml2 ?
Is it related to vista system or vs2008 runtime environment?

Thanks,

Perhaps did you use "lib64" folder instead of "lib".
