// author : bjBuilding instructions for GEL under Visual Studio

To build the .sln and vcproj files, execute :

MPC\mwc.pl -type vc71 GEL.mwc

The type flag can be changed to vc6, vc7 or vc8 according to your version of MSVC
Note: Perl must be installed. A freeware version can be downloaded from:

Each project contain three configurations: Debug, Release and Install. 

Debug and Release have the usual functionality, while Install is special. We assume, that once GEL is installed, it should be used without adding both source and header files to the particular project.

Therefore we install GEL in an outside directory defined by the environment variable GELEXT. In the configuration, this is done by setting the Target Directory to $(GELEXT)\lib\windows and, as a post-build event, all header files are copied to $(GELEXt)\include The GELEXT variable should be the path where all 3rd party lib and header files are stored (like /usr/local/ on a *NIX system)
