Like the Visual Studio 2012 project files, the Visual Studio 2013 files are
largely the same as the Visual Studio 2010 project files, so support
Visual Studio 2013 by updating the autotools scripts that is used for
Visual Studio 2012. This means that project files for Visual Studio 2012
and Visual Studio 2013 can be maintained by simply maintaining the Visual
Studio 2010 project files, adding minimal maintenance overhead.
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.
As the project file format for Visual Studio 2012 is only slightly
different from Visual Studio 2010 projects, we can provide support for
building GLib (and other projects) with Visual Studio 2012 with relatively
little effort. This might change when we eventually get GLib to work with
the Windows 8 (Modern UI/formerly Metro) APIs, but this will suffice for
the time being for people needing to build GLib with Visual Studio 2012.
Basically all that needs to be done at 'make dist' is:
-Copy the .sln/.props/README.txt/.vcxproj files and replace the VS2010
stuff with VS2012 stuff
-Copy the .vcxproj.filters as is
