Many thanks for testing the WIN32 support.

Following intructions from ​here should resolve the issue. After using the nmake /f makefile.vc command line, you should run the following to embed the manifest inside the binary file:

mt.exe –manifest zoo_loader.cgi.manifest -outputresource:zoo_loader.cgi;1

Please let us know if this solve the issue.

If yes, then we probably have to add this as a step in the makefile.vc file, something like : embed-manifest. This way, when needed the user would have to use the following commands to get a compiled ZOO-Kernel embedding manifest:

nmake /f makefile.vc
nmake /f makefile.vc embed-manifest

Then we will have to add a specific section in the documentation specifying first when/why this specific step have to be run and how to use it.

This extra step works. I have added it as a new build target in makefile.vc, and I will document this. thanks.
