Could you send me instruction to configure WTL on visual studio express 2010. Is it possible, legal?

I downloaded the latest WTL from svn.
To have access to ATL downloaded Windows Driver Kit Version 7.1.0.
I created default WTL application from wizard.
After settings all paths I was able to compile link and run application. But below linker warning means that application may crash in any time....

    Instructions are very simple: Add to include directories for VC++ Express directories for WTL and ATL included in WDK 7.1.0, and also libraries from WDK. I think this is legal.

    Warnings are because ATL files from WDK are older that VS2010 files, and define ATL sections differently. In atlbase.h:

    pragma section("ATL$__a", read, shared)

    pragma section("ATL$__z", read, shared)

    pragma section("ATL$__m", read, shared)

    If you change that to:

    pragma section("ATL$__a", read)

    pragma section("ATL$__z", read)

    pragma section("ATL$__m", read)

    everything will be OK.

    If you don't want to modify atlbase.h, you can ignore these warning, I don't think they can cause any real problem. You can also suppress them by adding /ignore:4254 to the linker command line.

    Unfortunately, WTL cannot do anything to fix this.
