Errors when compiling - incompatible PDB format

[Yukiko]

As the message says I get the error "incompatible PDB format in... ... delete and rebuild. I am posting the warnings and error list below. I am at revision 717. I am using VS2012 with compiler drop down settings set to: Debug Type -> Auto, Solution Configuration -> Release and, Solution Platform -> Win32.

Can I just delete the PDB files in question and will VS rebuild them or is there something else I need to do? Are the "warnings" critical or can I ignore them?

Thansk in advance for your help.

Mmm I think you can just delete and let VS rebuild it

[Turley]

first time you tried to compile with vs2012? looks a bit like it. a simple clean solution should be enough. but sometimes vs cannot delete some pdbs so if the error still occurs simply delete all compilation folders. (debug + release)

Yep. It's the first time compiling with 2012. I didn't wipe and re-checkout a clean SVN. I'll try deleting the PDB files first and then try cleaning the solution build folders next. If it still errors out I'll just wipe my SVN folder and re-checkout the repo.
Thanks.
