Update the build support of the included PCRE as we are now including
PCRE 8.30 with the GLib distribution.
Also "install" the new gversionmacros.h header file.
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 glib/ghmac.h to the list of files to copy during the "install" stage
-Cleaned up a bit (glib-2.0->glib-$(ApiVersion), where $(ApiVersion) is
2.0)
-Reinstate build/win32/vs10/glib.sln with the correct EOL (DOS/Windows) so
that the file can be correctly recognized by Windows, rather than having
the "Unrecognized Visual Studio Version".
-Update the main GLib projects to output the DLL/LIB file into <Release or
Debug>\<Win32 or x64>\bin for all configurations.
-Update/simplify the property sheets to copy all DLL and LIB files from
<Release or Debug>\<Win32 or x64>\bin for all configurations.
-Update the VS 2008 property sheet to seperate the intermediate directories
for all projects as well to avoid errors/warnings of being unable to
write/access the PDB files as they are in use.
-Seperate intermediate directories for each project to avoid intermittent
MSBuild errors that a build log cannot be written while in use, and
update the property sheet as necessary.
-Minor cleanups of uneeded tags in the projects/properties
-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!
