MSVC project import still somewhat broken

    Yup. File view subfolders don't get imported well. Instead of being placed into there correct parent folders, subfolders end up in the project's tree.

    The source/header files that _should_ be inside subfolders are then placed into the subfolders' _parent_ folder, _if_ the parent folder is directly attached to the tree.

    To make some more sense to this, I donate a little real world sample (the same as in my other thread):
    http://home.t-online.de/~zsack/brot.zip

    This one contains the 'brot_core' project in both MSVC format and in DevCC-format. I have arranged the files myself in _both_. If you want to see what I'm complaining about, import the MSVC project into DevCC and compare the resulting file view hierarchy with the one from the supplied brot_core.dev. That's how it _should_ look after importing.

      Sorry, mad typo:
      "The source/header files that _should_ be inside subfolders are then placed into the subfolders' _parent_ folder, _if_ the parent folder is directly attached to the tree."

      Should have been "if the parent folder is directly attached to the project's root."
