Let us know how far you get. Ice 3.4 might be necessary, though.

A newer version of SCons may also be necessary.

One option would be to use the "msproj" target from OmeroCpp/build.xml with an earlier version of Visual Studio. I'm not sure if they are interchangeable between projects, but it does allow one to build all of OmeroCpp from within Visual Studio.
