[Vortex] Using VortexLibraryW32 in Visual Studio

[Jorge Cabello]

Hi,

Due to some recent questions received about using Vortex Library in
Windows with Visual Studio, here is a set of basic steps to be taken. 

0) Install Vortex Library using the windows installer.

1) Add to Configuration Properties -> C/C++ -> General -> Additional 
Include Directories:
(Base Directory)\VortexLibraryW32\include\axl
(Base Directory)\VortexLibraryW32\include\vortex
(Base Directory)\VortexLibraryW32\lib\glib-2.0\include
(Base Directory)\VortexLibraryW32\include\glib-2.0

2) Add to Configuration Properties -> Linker -> General -> Additional 
Library Directories
* (Base Directory)\VortexLibraryW32\lib

3) Add to Configuration Properties -> Linker -> Input -> Additional 
Dependencies:
* glib-2.0.lib
* libvortex.lib

If you have followed these steps you should be able to compile a program
that uses Vortex Library. In order to run it you must copy the dlls
found in (Base Directory)\VortexLibraryW32\bin to your proyect directory
and the dtds files.

Currently the file libvortex.lib needed by Visual Studio it isnt in the
windows installer. Use the attached file until it is included.

I hope you find these steps useful. Let me know if you any issue with
the build system.

Kind regards.
