This updates the glib-install.[props|vsprops] so that the headers to
"install" for the build are kept up-to-date. Note that this has been
generated by a script, so that this hopefully means that the header
"installation" can be maintained along with the autotools files for most
uses, to simplify maintenance.
As glib-mkenums would likely be used in the building of the other
components of the stack, such as Cogl, Clutter and
gsettings-desktop-schemas, generate that using a Python script (if Python
can be found) and "install" it.
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.
...where possible, to make application of patches easier in the future.
The README.txt's and the .sln files are still in Windows/DOS line endings
as they need to be so.
Install the Python scripts that is used by gdbus-codegen in
share\glib-2.0\codegen, to be consistent with the other platforms.
Please see https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=702862 for details
on this.
Due to the split up of the property sheets, the install projects did not
have info on the Intermediate and Output Paths, which caused confusing
messages from Visual Studio to show up upon completing build+"install" and
closing Visual Studio on whether to reload the install project, at least on
Visual Studio 2008.
Include the property sheet which defines these properties to fix this.
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.
This is needed for GetAdaptersAddresses()[1], which was used to implement
if_nametoindex on Windows, notably on Windows XP, in commit 01156b12.
if_nametoindex and if_indextoname, as noted in config.h.win32(.in), is
available with Windows Vista and later, so when we eventually drop
support for Windows XP, we can call them directly, and these functions
also reside in the same iphlpapi.lib

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.
Update G_LOG_DOMAIN to be "GLib-GObject" so that we are consistent with
the autotools builds, and that tests expecting the log domain to be
"GLib-GObject" would not fail.
Define the G_LOG_DOMAIN of the GLib DLL as "GLib", because:
-This makes it consistent with the autotools builds
-Some tests expect the log domain to be "GLib"
We no longer need entries to generate the .def files in the property sheets
as we are now doing __declspec (dllexport) to export all the needed
symbols. So, purge these items from the property sheets since they are no
longer used.
We should also stop using gthread/gthread.def file as well, since we
also use __declspec (dllexport) for the two (deprecated) functions there
since commit f8756694.
This should also silence some linker warnings in x64 builds.
Also get rid of the references to the .symbols files in the
.vcxproj.filters(in) in the various Visual C++ 2010 projects
Since we are now starting to use __declspec (dllexport) to export the
public functions during the build of the GLib DLLs (i.e. to generate the
.lib files), we don't want to generate the .def files from the .symbols
files as we did before for a long time.
This removes from the projects the custom build steps to generate the
various .def files
This will also update the pre-configured config.h(.win32.in) to define
_GLIB_EXTERN appropriately as __declspec (dllexport), as well as making its
entries reflect config.h.in more closely.
The last commit (Add a preconfigured gio/gnetworking.h for Windows) has to
be split into two as git am does not like a patch that deals with files
that have different line feeds.
This updates the property sheets to use the pre-configured
gio/gnetworking.h during the build process.

Apparently the C4819 warnings appear due to a bug on Visual C++ on DBCS
locales, so re-enable this.
Add a note in the Visual C++ Readme.txt's regarding this.
-Make up for the missed DLL_EXPORT-it's actually needed for all GLib DLL
builds, omitting this caused problems to surface due to recent works to
make GDBus work on Windows.
-Also use the FFI_BULIDING macro for GObject builds as the suggessted
workaround for using static LibFFI builds (as we do now)-please see
ffi.h(.in). This will fix the build of GObject against LibFFI 3.0.11,
but it is probable that this will change at some point for LibFFI.
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.
Make the "install" project depend on the glib-compile-resources gresource
projects so that these tools will be indeed installed. Missed that in my
last commit-oops.
Also make the "install" project not to depend on the testglib project as:
-the test program in the project is not an exhausive test of the GLib
libraries
-One may want to use the project to compile different test program(s), so
it might be better to keep the project but not "install" the resulting
.exe
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.
Link to zlib1.lib for release builds and zlib1d.lib for debug builds-
this is to be consistent across the board for the GTK+ stack (and many
other opensource code linking to the ZLib DLL on Windows)
