propertysheet

I'm currently porting a gcc project to Visual C++. It's defined in a CMake file, and I have created a Visual C++ property sheet to aid in compatibility (GccCompat.props). Everytime the Visual C++ project files are regenerated by CMake, the property sheet has to be added manually, since I don't know how to add it automatically. So, the question is: How can I tell CMake to add a property sheet to the generated Visual C++ solution? This functionality has made it into the nightly build of CMake ( https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/commit/e390991846825799e619e072a28f1da58b7c89ba ), although not

I would like to know if there is a possibility to get the list of project's include directories when building files with custom build step. Imagine following situation: my project consists of A.cpp , B.cpp and C.blah . In project properties under the field "C/C++" -> "General" -> "Additional Include Directories" I have specified a list of includes directories to be used for A.cpp and B.cpp . Now for C.blah I do specify a custom build tool and write into "Command Line" -> "mytool.exe C.blah -I*Direcotries?* -o C.obj". How can I now get the list of include directories specified for the C/C++ in

I'm using Visual Studio 2010 SP1. I notice that I can add property sheets to a project but I cannot change the character set in those property sheets. Any property sheet I create is missing the 'Character Set' option. Can anyone explain why I can't set the character set using a property sheet? Is there some list of forbidden properties that can't be set using a property sheet? Thanks Ok I did some searching on my hard drive and found the answer. Project Defaults, which Character Set is a part of, define which default MSBuild property sheets to inherit. Therefore when you choose Character Set

Let's say I carry out the following steps immediately after first installing and opening Microsoft Visual Studio 2010: File -> New -> Project -> Win32 Console App -> Finish . Go to the Property Manager pane -> Expand Debug | Win32 -> Right click Microsoft.Cpp.Win32.user -> Select Properties . Wildly change settings in a clueless manner, and generally act like a fool. Click Apply , save the project, and close Visual Studio. How do I restore the Microsoft.Cpp.Win32.user property sheet to its default, "factory" settings? I'm not sure if this is the official way, but it does work... The default
