It's not only the file format that has changed, it's the complete build
process for C/C++ that got switched from VCBuild to MSBuild. The convert
wizard seems to have some trouble with escaped characters like '\"'
which is used for enclosing the value of CMAKE_INTDIR for example. Removing
all '\"' in all auto converted .vcxproj files I was able to compile my
solution.
Unfortunatly that's still not all. I can't link just yet. Got a boatload if
unresolved externals for basic_string and stuff. I tried with another small
project and got the same errors, creating a new solution from scratch works
fine.
Thanks for the tip on the quot stuff.
Well, the autoconvert stuff has never worked for CMake. However, if
anyone would like to help with the new generator here is what I would
like to have. I would like a mapping from flags to xml snippets.
Basically go into the GUI and set each flag possible for the compile and
linker and create a table of command line cl flag to XML representation
of that. I am working on the new code this next week, but if someone
or some group of people were to help create the flag map that would be
really helpful and speed things up.
Fortunately, the NMake generator does work if people want to try the
compiler with their code.
