I have created a large Visual C++ 10.0 project which builds nicely within the visual studio ide as well as within the "special" Visual Studio Command Prompt using msbuild with a vcxproj file.
However this project needs to be compiled by computers that do not have the vs ide, but only have the msbuild tool and the vc++ 10.0 runtime files.
The problem is that the vcxproj (created by the vs ide) file contains references to files such as Microsoft.Cpp.Default.props
and Microsoft.Cpp.targets
which clearly won't be available in a computer without visual studio.
Since all the compile and link command line options are available and fixed (no changes will be necessary), how is it possible to create a new vcxproj file to implement the compiling and linking of the project using these options?
