-  Express versions of Visual Studio do not support this

-  - VS 2008 Shell: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=9771

-  If you are using the Visual Studio Shell 2008 or 2010, it misses one file,
-  that is needed for the conversion of the debug information by cv2pdb. This 
-  is msobj80.dll for VS2008 and msobj100.dll for VS2010 and must be extracted 
-  from a standard installation, the Visual C Express edition or the Windows SDK.
-  You might also find it installed by other Microsoft products.
