Problem MSVCTOOLKIT vs MSTOOLKIT

Hello,

when i try to compile nsis with scons and the command line MSVCTOOLKIT=YES, i get an error:

cl /nologo /GS- /O1 /W3 /EHsc /TP /D_CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS /D_CRT_NONSTDC_NO_WA

If i replace MSVCTOOLKIT by MSTOOLKIT there is no problem,

to compile i use Platform SDK for Server 2003 R2 and Visual C++ Express 2005.

MSVCTOOLKIT is not a valid option. There's only MSTOOLKIT, no VC. Does the documentation suggest using MSVCTOOLKIT somewhere?

Thanks, i was thinking that MSTOOLKIT was only for VC toolkit 2003 and MSVCTOOLKIT was for VC 2005 Express...

Sorry
