Description:
In our debug project configurations, many of the projects were generating debug information for "Program Database and Edit & Continue". Other projects were using different settings, or none at all. We standardize to use "Program Database" setting, because it generates much smaller .obj files and cuts out unnecessary debug information.
This is another project cleanup and enhancement from user suggestions outlined in bug #1164
Tested:
VS2005 on WinXP
VS.NET on WinXP
Description:
In many of our project files on Windows, we have our linker setting set to ignore old link libraries-- either libc.lib or libcd.lib. This is a relic from converting project files from old versions of Visual Studio to newer ones, and is unnecessary. Per a user's suggestion, we remove the ignored library from the project files. This actually makes no difference in the output binaries.
Tested:
VS2005 on WinXP
VS.NET on WinXP
Description:
This checkin is another Windows project cleanup, and also extends our Windows support for 64-bit Fortran. Project files are now in VS2005 format, rather than VS.NET. A couple projects have been renamed to be more descriptive (*cstub rather than *_lib), and project settings make better use of build macros. This will make them much easier to update in the future.
Tested:
VS2005 on WinXP 32-bit
VS2005 on WinXP x64
Desciption:
This is the first major check-in in the process of depreciating Visual Studio 6.0. We create a new directory, windows_vs6, which now holds all of our previous VS6 project files. We expect to maintain this directory for only a short time (perhaps one release), so users have time to make the change.
The ./windows directory now contains project files for Visual Studio .Net, as well as existing source and test scripts. This will allow us to greatly simplify the build process for the majority of our users.
We have created a new solution (.Net equivolent of workspace) that houses the Fortran project files. This allowed us to remove these files from the main solution, as well as streamline the conversion in the Fortran solution. It is also much easier now to convert to Visual Studio 2005 files.
Notes:
I didn't update the MANIFEST with this check-in, I will make those changes shortly.
Also, I haven't yet updated the documentation to reflect this check-in. That is going to require more work.
We will be giving a seminar in the coming weeks about .Net and how to migrate over.
Tested:
VS6/VNET/VS2005 on WinXP 32/64-bit
