# Project Notes
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
DO NOT modify project settings for each configuration and/or platform
|
||
|
|
on a per-project basis. Use property sheets to set shared configuration
|
||
|
|
properties. The rule of thumb - if you set same value for the same
|
||
|
|
property in more than one configuration or platform, you did it wrong.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## libmaxminddb.props
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is the base property sheet for libMaxMindDB project. It contains
|
||
|
|
settings that are shared between all configurations, such as compiler
|
||
|
|
warning level, not using link-time code generation, etc.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In order to minimize the number of property sheet files, this propery
|
||
|
|
sheet also contains settings for Win32 and Debug configurations, which
|
||
|
|
are overridden by the x64 and Release property sheets described below.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## libmaxminddb-release.props
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This property sheet contains all Release settings and is shared between
|
||
|
|
Win32 and x64 release builds. It must be located higher than the base
|
||
|
|
property sheet in the property Manager window for each configuration
|
||
|
|
where it's used (i.e. Release|Win32 and Release|x64).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## libmaxminddb-x64.props
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This property sheet contains all x64 settings and is shared between all
|
||
|
|
Debug and Release x64 configurations. It must be located higher than the
|
||
|
|
base property sheet in the property Manager window for each configuration
|
||
|
|
where it's used (i.e. Debug|x64 and Release|x64).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Adding More Projects
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you want to add more projects into this solution, follow the same logic
|
||
|
|
and create their own property sheets. Do not use libmaxminddb property
|
||
|
|
sheets in those projects because it will interfere with their intermediate
|
||
|
|
directories. Instead, copy and rename libmaxminddb property sheets as a
|
||
|
|
starting point.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
DO NOT add libmaxminddb.lib to the Additional Dependencies box of command
|
||
|
|
line tools or any other libraries you built, for that matter. This box is
|
||
|
|
only for standard Windows libraries. Instead, add libmaxminddb as a reference
|
||
|
|
to all command line tool projects. Do the same for any other library projects
|
||
|
|
you added to this solutionn.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For external 3rd-party .lib files, create a solution folder called Libraries
|
||
|
|
and add Debug, Debug64, Release, Release64 subfolders, then drag and drop all
|
||
|
|
versinos of .lib to their respective folders and use Exclude From Build in
|
||
|
|
each library file's property to assign them to the proper build confguration.
|
||
|
|
Unused libraries will be shown with a traffic stop sign in each configuration.
|
||
|
|
If you have a lot of projects, it might be easier to do this by editing .vcxproj
|
||
|
|
and .vcxproj.filters in a text editor.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# Tests
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To use the tests, you must download the `libtap` and `maxmind-db` submodules.
|
||
|
|
This can be done by running `git submodule update --init --recursive` from
|
||
|
|
the Git checkout. Each test source file has a separate project. Once compiled,
|
||
|
|
the tests must be run from the base directory of the checkout.
