We need to copy the GDK .lib/.dll from Release_Broadway\<Platform>\bin
or Debug_Broadway\<Platform>\bin to Release\<Platform>\bin or
Debug\<Platform>\bin respectively during the build of Broadway flavors of
GDK, as the MSVC introspection builds expects the GDK .lib/.dll to be
in Release\<Platform>\bin or Debug\<Platform>\bin.
Use a new property sheet to do so for Broadway builds of GDK-during the
builds of Win32-only GDK, the broadway builds of the GDK .lib/.dll would
be cleared out prior to the build of the Win32-only GDK.
-For the binary "installation", look for the DLL files with their file
names consistent with the ones that are generated with the respective
Visual Studio projects.
-Remove any stray GDK DLLs that were left over from a Broadway-enabled
GDK when building a non-Broadway-enabled GTK+ binary set.
Update the gtk-install-bin property sheets so that it does not "install"
the wrong GDK DLL/LIB when building a broadway-enabled GDK
when the non-Broadway GDK had been previously built.
Add the Visual Studio 2010 projects to build the GDK Broadway backend, just
like the Visual Studio 2008 project files in the last commit. Similarly,
split up the property sheets so that they are easier to maintain and can
be made more flexible for different build types. Also remove some unneeded
stuff from some of these items.
Also, fix the filter file completion for GTK, as a source file was excluded
for that and this was overlooked as it seemingly did not cause any trouble.
-Add Visual Studio 2008 projects and pre-configured gdkconfig.h for
Broadway builds
-Decouple the Visual Studio property sheets, to simplify maintenance and
enhance flexibility for different builds
Visual Studio 2010 projects updates will follow later.
This adds a crypt(3) implementation for use with broadwayd as Visual Studio
does not support crypt(3) out of the box.
The public domain implementation is taken from the following URL,
http://michael.dipperstein.com/crypt/, where AFAICT this implementation
would not be subject to licensing restrictions that would prevent it from
being bundled.
-Update the pre-configured config.h.win32(.in) to define _GDK_EXTERN as
__declspec (dllexport) as we are not using .def files to export symbols
anymore.
-Update the GDK/GTK DLL projects and the property sheets to stop using
the .symbols/.def files
-Update the property sheets to "install" the newly-introduced GTK headers
-Update the gtk3-demo project to build the new demo sources that must be
built
Add a PlatformToolset tag for each configuration for project files that
do not yet have them. This is to ease support for Visual Studio 2012 as
we can copy and easily replace a few items with automated scripts as
project files for Visual Studio 2010 and 2012 are very similar.
This might change when we eventually support the Metro (aka Windows 8
Modern UI), but this will suffice for the time being.
Apparently time_t is used in gtkrecentmanager.h, which is a special type
that could not be recognized when Gtk-3.0.gir is built. Judging from the
ast.py from the gobject-introspection package, we can define time_t as
long, and this will allow pygobject to load the Gtk module from
gi.repository.
Integrate the utility projects to build the introspection files into the
main solution files, so that one can build the introspection files from the
IDE. This is not built by default, so one can build the introspection
files if he/she chooses to do so.
Add Windows .bat and Python script to call g-ir-scanner to build
introspection files for Visual Studio builds. This will read from the
autotools files using Python REGEX functionality to determine the headers
and sources for g-ir-scanner to process, so the autotools files will not
need to be updated except to distribute the necessary files. Thils will
also enable one to build introspection files on Windows without using a
BASH-style shell such as MSYS.
Also add an utility Visual Studio project to call the Windows .bat to
build the introspection files for GTK+/GDK, for convenience.
Since we are linking in the resource items by the source, we need to
disable WholeProgramOptimization so that the resource stuff does get linked
into the demo binaries, so that they can be loaded properly.
Also make sure that gtk3-demo-application is also built with the multibyte
character set, like the rest.
This should fix bug 694342, at least for Visual Studio builds.
-Use ApiVersion instead of GtkApiVersion for consistency's sake across
the board
-Add placeholder directives in the property sheets for building
introspection files using .bat files directly from the Visual Studio IDE.
This is used by the "Application Class" demo... so this should be built
as well especially as we are getting gspawn-win{32|64}-helper.exe fixed
on Visual Studio 2005 (and later) builds.
Update the Visual Studio projects for gtka11y and the completion of the
projects that go along with it. This have been distcheck'ed on my Ubuntu
12.04 system.
Link to winmm.lib as well, as we are now using timeEndPeriod() and
timeBeginPeriod() since commit 5dbf814f (win32: Request higher
precision timers during animations).
This adds a PlatformToolset tag in the project configs so that we can
provide support for Visual Studio 2012 with relative ease as the format
of the VS 2012 projects are only slightly different from their VS 2010
counterparts.
We can then use a script like the one used in GLib[1] to copy the VS2010
projects and replace the necessary tags to create the VS2012 projects.
This also cleans up the projects and property sheets, as there were some
unwanted/unneeded entries in them.

-Rename the "libgail" projects to gtka11y, for consistency with the
autotools builds
-Update the projects completion in gtk/a11y/Makefile.am, as the sources are
now listed under $(libgtka11y_la_SOURCES) instead of $(libgail_la_SOURCES)
-Turn on Whole Program Optimization for all Release builds.
-Disable Incremental Linking for all Release builds.
-Use MultiByte character set for all configurations for consistency.
-Enhance optimization by turning on WholeProgramOptimization for all
Release builds
-Disable IncrementalLinking for all Release builds
-Make sure we are using MultiByte character set, to be consistent across
the board for all configurations
Remove the "-win32-" from the output file names for the GDK and GTK+ DLLs,
like what is now done for quite a while on other platforms
(and MinGW builds), for consistency reasons. This is due to GDK/GTK+
are buildable with multiple backends.
Note: For references, the Windows build only builds the Win32 backend
for the time being.
