~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
MySQL++'s top-level Visual Studio project files aren't
maintained directly. Instead, we use a tool called Bakefile
- (http://bakefile.org/) to generate many different project file
- and Makefile types from a single set of source files. There is
- a native Windows version of Bakefile up on that web site.
- Download that and put the directory containing bakefile_gen.exe
- in your Windows PATH.
-
- Bakefile generates the various project files and Makefiles from
- a single source file, mysql++.bkl. This is usually the file you
- need to change when you want to make some change to the MySQL++
- build system.

- Once you've made your changes, you can generate the Visual C++
- project files by running rebake.bat, which you can find in the

+ (http://bakefile.org/) to generate them from mysql++.bkl. Since
+ there are so many project files in MySQL++, it's often simpler to
+ edit this source file and "re-bake" the project files from it than
+ to make your changes in Visual Studio.
+
+ To do this, download the native Windows version of Bakefile from the
+ web site given above. Install it, and then put the installation
+ directory in your Windows PATH. Then, open up a command window, cd
+ into the MySQL++ directory, and type "rebake". This will run
+ rebake.bat, which rebuilds the Visual Studio project files from
+ mysql++.bkl.
