[Celestia-developers] Moving to VC8

[Alex B. <al...@ma...>]

Hi,

I noticed you are moving to VC8 express.

One thing I found about this when migrating some other projects is  
that you have to distribute the manifest file that the linker makes  
and distribute the runtime libraries in a folder with an xml file in  
it that describes the folder. There is more detail to be found on the  
net.

If you don't know about it, it can take some time to figure out.

Also noticed you are still working with make files.
Has anyone considered a using a cross platform build system http:// 
www.scons.org or similar - hope not to start a flame war, just a  
suggestion.
