Like the Visual Studio 2008 project files, split up the property sheets
so to ease maintenace, and to prepare to use autotools to fill in the
header entries to "install".
Put some of the items that are frequently repeated in the projects as well,
also to simplify maintenance.
Also, update the autotools files to automate the upgrade of Visual Studio
2010 project as we now have multiple property sheets to copy and process.
Build and "install" the gio-querymodules and gdbus utility programs so that
the Visual Studio builds of GLib is more comprehensive. The Python scripts
for the GDBus codegen will be added to "installation" later.
Added projects to compile the glib-compile-resources and gresource(-tool)
utility programs during the Visual C++ 2010 build process, "install"
the resulting binaries upon successful compilation, and dist the new
.vcxproj and .vcxproj.filters files.
Also updated the property sheet and "install" project to make sure the new
.exe's are indeed "installed" and removed from the "install" project the
dependency on the testglib project as testglib is not an exhausive test on
GLib and people might want to make that project compile different test
programs as they might need.
Just wondering: I have updated the property sheet to create the
gconstructor_as_data.h header for glib-compile-resources, but is it better
to dist that generated header instead as the VS 2008/2010 projects will
depend on a working installation of PERL on Windows?
-Added projects to compile the glib-compile-schemas and gsettings utilities
-Update .vsprops to install these in "install" phase
-Distribute these projects also
These are the actual GLib VS2010 project files (*.vcxproj,
*.vcxproj.filters) and property sheet file (*.props) that are used
to compile the GLib, GModule, GObject, GThread, GIO DLLs, along with
the gspawn-win32-helper* programs, glib-genmarshal utility and
testglib test program. A readme.txt file is also enclosed for
references for building GLib under VS2010.
Note that the project files for GLib, GIO and GObject are templates
that makes use of the autotools items of my last commit so that maintenance
of those files are simplified as new source files are added to these rather
frequently.
Suggestions are welcome for these-please let me know via BugZilla.
Thank you!
