Build Pnet-CDF for Windows and link against MSMPI

[Kunal Rao]

Hi Wei-keng,

  Thanks for your reply. I added that printf to print the error message, and
I get this error message:

   Error message : Size of off_t too small for requested format

  What should I do to resolve it ?

Thanks & Regards,
Kunal
