Add the PlatformToolset tag to the project configs so that we can use add a
simple script later to the autotools files to copy the projects and change
the value (v100 -> v110) of that tag (and other simple changes) in order
that we can quickly provide and maintain support for Visual Studio 2012
with minimal effort.
Note that at the moment GLib does not yet support the API/SDK requirements
for Windows 8 Modern UI (formerly known as Metro), but this paves the very
initial step.
Clean/fix up the Preprocessor Definitions for the various projects, where
we purge out the unneeded macros and add _DEBUG to the Debug builds of
various projects that somehow lacked this.
This will also fix the GIO build under Visual C++ 2008, as the _DEBUG macro
in the release builds will cause a debug entry to appear in its manifest
file during the build, which will cause GIO-using applications to fail
to run on systems not running Visual C++/Studio 2008 due to its embedding
of a badly-generated manifest file.
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.
-Fix GLib project/filter files generation as some source items are under
the "deprecated" subfolder, and filter out the gthread-*.c
-Explicitly specify gthread-win32.c in the GLib project/filter file
templates, since tarballs are done on Linux.
-Don't define g_static_mutex_get_mutex in the pregenerated
glibconfig.h.win32(.in) as it is defined in deprecated/gthread.h for Windows
Define USE_SYSTEM_PCRE for all configurations which uses the PCRE that
was already built and "installed" beforehand (i.e. the *_ExtPCRE
configurations) so that the compilation will not pick up the
GLib-bundled pcre.h when one wants to use the PCRE "installation" on
his/her system.
-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
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!
