mspdb80.dll was not found

When I tried to run cl.exe from the command line, the error message I get is "Application unable to start, mspdb80.dll was not found".

Can somebody help me with this problem?

Make sure your path is set up correctly. mspdb80.dll is part of the VS2005 install, and it usually lives in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common7\IDE. So this directory needs to be on the path when you run cl.exe.

I met the similar problem when I tried to debug one plugin in IDE.

I can find the above directory in the path.

Is this problem caused by the VC++ version? I use the express version.

Please give me advice how to fix this.

Thanks.
