[Bf-committers] msvcgen: Autogeneration of Visual Studio project files (all versions)

[erwin at erwincoumans.com]

Hi, 

There is a way to auto generate MSVC 6/7/8 Visual Studio files. I am very 
happy with a contribution to Bullet that came from Crystal Space.
It is jam based, and requires some other files, but once it is setup, it is 
much easier to maintain then manually updating. It even handles 
dependencies. 

If you like, you can see some example here:
http://svn.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.cgi/bullet/bullet-1.5b/msvc/ 

Is there interest to add such system, purely to make the MSVC files more 
maintainable?

By the way, I did the first msvc files for Blender back in 2000, all 
manually. Such system would have been very useful back then!
