Here is a patch to have the same file names and locations as the mingw32 build.
It also put .pdb files in debug mode next to the build files to allow debugging even when you're coding another module...
* msvc/config.h.in, modules/access_output/file.c: MSVC fixes.
* modules/video_chroma/i420_rgb.c: don't use our RV24 conversion routine on win32 because it assumes 32 bits per pixel.
* msvc/vlc.dsw: added basic_skins and renamed mpeg_video into mpeg_video_old.
* modules/codec/mpeg_video/parser.c: fixed segfault when idct/motion modules can't be loaded.
Don't include io.h on win32 when not necessary.
A few build fixes for MSVC.
* src/misc/win32_specific.c: try to load winsock2 instead of winsock1 when
present.
* toolbox, msvc/*: few fixes to the msvc project files generation.
(compiling plugins won't work yet because there are a few hacks that
need to be done in order to compile dlls that use the c-runtime)
* ./bootstrap: fixed a typo that prevented per-object target directories
to work.
* ./evc/*, ./msvc/*: removed project files; they're becoming a bit large
(more than 1MB) and I don't want to spoil the CVS with them.
8 bit string under WinCE.
* ./extras/Win32_msvc: scrapped this directory.
* ./bootstrap: we now parse plugin makefiles to guess what to put in
the MSVC project files. Only the dummy plugin has been tested yet.
it simply outputs a usage message.
* ./src/*: fixed a bunch of (legitimate) warnings under VC++.
* ./evc/*, ./msvc/*: split the workspaces into three projects (libvlc, vlc
and plugins -- plugins doesn't build anything yet).
directory because the two project files are starting to diverge.
* ./evc/vlc.c: created a specific vlc.c file for Windows CE.
* ./src/misc/messages.c: as WinCE doesn't have stdout or stderr, the message
queue outputs to a logfile (until we have a proper interface).
yet so there's little that can be tested, but threads work at least.
* ./src/extras/libc.c: renamed strndup.c to libc.c because a few other
libc functions were added (strcasecmp, atof, getenv...).
work is still needed for missing functions. I only touched libvlc for
the moment, plugins will come in a long long while.
* ./bootstrap: moved MSVC project files generation here; use --update-msvc.
