I am setting up a project in VS 2010 based on this guide:

At some point I need to specify a path like this:

$(OGRE_HOME)\lib\$(Configuration)

I have created the variable OGRE_HOME myself, but what is $(Configuration)? Is that some existing variable defined in VS 2010?

The same goes for:

$(OutDir)
$(TargetFileName)
$(ProjectName).exe

Where can I find info on those variables, or what can be used as variables in VS 2010?
