This relates to my previous commit titled "add a script to generator
files for building" on behalf of Shixin Zeng.
Tell people about the availability of a python script to create the
necessary files for a Visual C++ build from a GIT checkout.
This is done with the courtesy of Shixin Zeng's python script which does
the job and eliminates the troubles of getting a suitable shell environment
to do the "make dist" job (which is especially not easy on Windows itself!)
-In gio/Makefile.am, the name for one of the filters for capturing the
sources for the GIO VS Project Files is corrected.
-Remove the GIO source file items in the VS project files templates as
a result for this change, and move the entry of the "new"
gregistrysettingsbackend.c into the filter in gio/Makefile.am
This time I realized that I needed to set autocrlf=false on my Windows side
... ugh...
This is one of those files that must have CRLF line endings to work
orrectly :|
-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 tools require the use of GModule headers also, so update the include
directories so that the correct gmodule.h will be included instead of the
system-installed version.
-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!
