List the files that are generated in the process to generate the
glib-install property sheets, so that we can use that list as a
depedency, as well as deleting those files in one shot after the
property sheet is generated, so we don't need to worry about those
in 'make distclean' or so.
Use a simple all-purpose utility script to generate the glib-mkenums
PERL script with the version info, and stop using the script that
tries to parse the autotools files. Move the things that
were taken out from build/win32/setup.py back there.
Make use of the common autotools module that is used to generate the MSVC
project files from their respective templates so that the main build files
beccome cleaner, and enhance them in a way that the headers that should be
installed can be written to the property sheets during 'make dist', so that
the chances of missing headers for MSVC builds can be greatly reduced.
Also use this autotools module to fill in the projects for
glib-compile-schemas and glib-compile-resources.

Rename the project to "install" the GLib files, as we are planning to have
a grand solution file that would build the entire GTK+ stack with its deps,
to ease the process for people building the GTK+ stack from a stock
installation of Visual Studio.
There are many test programs that are shipped with GLib, and this project
is a one-to-one project, which does not make sense to keep as various test
programs may have different CFLAGS, etc, which will require different build
options.
Make the projects include a single property sheet as necessary, which will
in turn include the other property sheet(s) as needed, so that we can avoid
warnings where we include the same property sheets twice in a single
project.
Also make the copying of pre-configured headers into custom build rules so
that they can be removed upon the clean command from the IDE and that they
can be re-copied if their counterpart *.h.win32 are updated.
Split the property sheet into four sheets, to make maintainance of the
build files easier, and also to prepare for using autotools to fill in
the parts for the "installation" of headers.
Also put more of the items that are repeated in the projects into the
property sheets, also to improve ease of maintenance.
Updates to the Visual Studio 2010 projects will come later, as the script
to update them to Visual Studio 2012 must also be taken into account during'
the 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.
Add projects to build the glib-compile-resources and gresource(-tool)
utilities, and "install" these tools upon successful compilation, and dist
the new projects.
One piece of note: will it be better to dist gconstructor_as_data.h instead
of generating it in the VS build process (I generated it in the property
sheet update in this commit)?
Visual C++ 2010 projects will follow shortly.
-Added projects to compile the glib-compile-schemas and gsettings utilities
-Update .vsprops to install these in "install" phase
-Distribute these projects also
Don't keep the lists of source files for libglib, libgobject and
libgio in the VS project files in addition to the canonical location,
the corresponding Makefile.am files.
Instead, generate the corresponding .vcproj files at make dist time
using the C preprocessor, from template files called .vcprojin. We
still list explicitly in the .vcprojin files some of the
Windows-specific source files, and the sources files of gnulib and
pcre.

* win32/vs8/README
* win32/vs9/README: New files. Mention this VS solution and
projects are experimental and that https://code.launchpad.net/oah
might be a better choice.
* win32/vs8/Makefile.am
* win32/vs9/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add the READMEs and two
missing vcproj files.

* win32/vs9: New folder. Project files for use with MSVS9. Based
on the MSVS8 project files is win32/vs8. Four configurations:
Debug|Win32, Release|Win32, Debug|x64 and Release|x64. DLL names
simplified to of the style glib-2-vs9.dll.
