What's the current recommended way to build GEOS on windows using Visual

project file approaches, in both the stable rc4 3.0.0 release, and the
latest SVN version. Before I beat my head against a wall for too much
longer I figured I'd ask which version / approach is currently the best
supported.
Simon, all 3 versions should work well: geos/build/msvc80,
makefiles and (experimental) geos/build/bjam.
What's the problem?

Actually it's one of my colleagues who's working on this, but I think
most of the problems were caused by trying to use the "stable" release
3.0.0 rc4 which seems to have various things missing for windows. Then
we ran into the problem that the SVN download didn't seem to include the
various configure generated files, such as version.h, etc which the
makefiles were looking for. We switched to using project files, but then
there were errors building the python and ruby bindings (which we don't
need). But I think, by switching those projects off and using the
solution files in SVN, we managed to get a build that we can use. I'll
let you know if we have any other problems!
Thanks,
Simon
