Projects in MSVC build building on top of one another
-----------------------------------------------------

                 Key: AMQCPP-29
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQCPP-29
             Project: ActiveMQ C++ Client
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.1
            Reporter: Albert Strasheim
         Assigned To: Nathan Mittler
            Priority: Minor


After I've done a complete Debug build on Windows with MSVC 2005, building the 
solution again still yields the following each time I build:

1>------ Build started: Project: vs2005-activemq-example, Configuration: Debug 
Win32 ------
1>Linking...
1>Embedding manifest...
1>Build log was saved at 
"file://c:\home\albert\work5\activemq-cpp\Debug\BuildLog.htm"
1>vs2005-activemq-example - 0 error(s), 0 warning(s)
========== Build: 1 succeeded, 0 failed, 3 up-to-date, 0 skipped ==========

I think this relinking might have something to do with the tests and 
activemq-example all containing a main.cpp with is built as main.obj in the 
Debug directory.

You might consider setting up the Windows builds as follows (idea borrowed from 
many other projects I've looked at):

top level of project
   \win_build
   \win_build\solution.sln
   \win_build\project1.sln
   \win_build\project2.sln
   \win_build\Debug (output directory)
   \win_build\Release (output directory)
   \win_build\project1\Debug (intermediate directory)
   \win_build\project1\Release (intermediate directory)
   \win_build\project2\Debug (intermediate directory)
   \win_build\project2\Release (intermediate directory)

To achieve this, each project's output directory for each build is set to 
(SolutionDir)$(ConfigurationName)  and the intermediate directory is set to 
$(SolutionDir)$(ProjectName)\$(ConfigurationName) (note the extra \).

This setup keeps all the Windows output out of the top level directory, and 
prevents projects from building on top of one another.

With this setup, you need to refer to src\main as ..\src\main, etc.
