| Hi there. | |
| You can find the project files for MSVC 6.0 and higher in win32/dsp/ | |
| subdirectory of the source tree. You should load the file libxml2.dsw | |
| into the IDE. This is the workspace file which contains all projects | |
| and their interdependencies. | |
| Check the file xmlwin32version.h for optional features and enable or | |
| disable them, as it suits you. The defaults are apropriate for most | |
| people, so there is usually no need to mess with this. | |
| For libxml2, there is a single project file which builds both static | |
| and shared library in a single run. When you build the project libxml2, | |
| you will find the following files in your win32/dsp/libxml2 | |
| subdirectory: | |
| libxml2.dll shared library | |
| libxml2.lib import library for dynamic link | |
| libxml2_a.lib static library | |
| Other project files produce a single executable in a subdirectory which | |
| shares the name with the project. | |
| All object files produced by the compiler end up in the same | |
| directory for each project, no matter if you compile with debugging | |
| turned on or not. This means that a release build shall overwite the | |
| debug build and vice versa. This makes the dependency tracking easier, | |
| but there are people who don't like this for some reason. | |
| If you receive few compiler warnings, ignore them. These are harmless | |
| and shall dissapear in the future. | |
