Bug 653841: Update README.win32 and VS README.txt's
This relates to my previous commit titled "add a script to generator files for building" on behalf of Shixin Zeng. Tell people about the availability of a python script to create the necessary files for a Visual C++ build from a GIT checkout. This is done with the courtesy of Shixin Zeng's python script which does the job and eliminates the troubles of getting a suitable shell environment to do the "make dist" job (which is especially not easy on Windows itself!)

This VS9 solution and the projects it includes are intented to be used
|
||||
in a GLib source tree unpacked from a tarball. In a git checkout you
|
||||
first need to use some Unix-like environment or manual work to expand
|
||||
the .in files needed, mainly config.h.win32.in into config.h.win32 and
|
||||
glibconfig.h.win32.in into glibconfig.h.win32. You will also need to
|
||||
expand the .vcprojin files here into .vcproj files.
|
||||
first need to use some Unix-like environment or run build/win32/setup.py,
|
||||
which will do the work for you:
|
||||
|
||||
$python build/win32/setup.py --perl path_to_your_perl.exe
|
||||
|
||||
for more usage on this script, run
|
||||
$python build/win32/setup.py -h/--help
|
||||
|
||||
The required dependencies are zlib and proxy-libintl. Fetch the latest
|

proxy-libintl-dev and zlib-dev zipfiles from
