Hi Bing,

This seems more like a user support question than for the dev list but here 
goes;

As of the last releases (2.2.17 & 2.3.11) there were no .sln or .vcproj files 
shipped in the sources. There are only the VC6 workspace & project files (.dsw 
& .dsp). These are what the cvtdsp.pl -2005 modifies and it must be used.

VC 2010 will not inport & convert these VC6 files. The last VC version to do so 
was 2008 (VC9). Therefore, at this stage you need to have a copy of VC 2008 
also to do that. It will convert these VC6 files. After that import you just 
Save all, then open in VC2010. It will then convert them to VC 2010 which is a 
slow process compared to the conversion from VC6 in VC 2008.

Quite frankly the best way to build on VC 2010 is on the command line with 
nmake. I prefer the IDE myself, but I'm using VC2008 and am not fond of VC 2010 
anyway.

Cheers,

Gregg

I also tried the method suggested by
        http://www.blackdot.be/?inc=apache/knowledge/tutorials/x64
that uses "perl cvtdsp.pl -2005" to first make VS2005 project files, but all
the 
*.vcproj files cannot converted to VS2010. Does anybody know the reason?
(VS2008 had no problem, though.)

Bing

I am still experimenting.

I don't think it's a permission problem. I am on a separate partition
with all the necessary rights.

I managed though to build it with nmake only with the "click one more
time" approach. So, by running nmake (NMAKE /f Makefile.win installd)
several times I managed to get over the 'tempfile.bat' errors. Does
this ring a bell?


In VS, they are errors. Trying to built according to:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/platform/win_compiling.html#workspacebuild
-> during the first build, I got "header not found" errors complaining
about "apr.h"
-> (I tried one more time) starting from the 2nd build onwards, the
errors are LINK errors. "cannot find external symbol"


With the nmake build above i could finally build/debug the problem
mentioned in the other post (slow shutdown waiting for treads) (I see
that you already replied to that, and I am curious ;) )

Regards,
Gabriel
