Question

Is there a way to adjust visual-C++ (MS VS 2010 EE) project properties in such a way, that the same .sln files can be built just in one click among different computers (on Windows, of course)? – so it will be possibly to upload visual-C++ projects to SVN server. Project uses some libraries (header and .lib files) with absolute (system dependent) path (e.g. boost) and it’s own utils.

Answer 1

You can use environment variables in your project settings by enclosing them in $(). e.g. if your environment defines BOOST_INCLUDE:

set BOOST_INCLUDE=C:\boost\include\boost-1_45

then you can use $(BOOST_INCLUDE) in your settings to refer to the Boost include directory.
