Trying to compile example: a lot of errors, even with C99 compiler

Also, it's not very Visual Studio friendly, if at all. I've been able to compile it under studio with some changes, but then your example is unable to dump data from CBOR.

It starts print "Map[" and then blows with unexpected EOF error.

This is simple file your example was unable to print.

Thanks, the API changed since I wrote that example. I'm working on it now.
