> Hello!
> *Introduktion:*
> After downloading the
> [apache-log4cxx-0.11.0.zip|https://downloads.apache.org/logging/log4cxx/0.11.0/apache-log4cxx-0.11.0.zip]
> I realized that the files "INSTALL.txt" and "vsstudio.apt" do not guide
> users to build the "log4cxx.dll" using Visual Studio.
> *Tooling:*
> IDE: Microsoft Visual Studio Professional 2019 Version 16.8.4
> C++ Language Standard: Default (ISO C++14 Standard)
> *Explaining the Issue:*
> The "INSTALL.txt" which is located in the root directory redirects me to the
> file "src/site/apt/building/vstudio.apt".
> *1.)* In the chapter +"*Preparation"+ the components
> "apr-1.2.11-win32-src.zip" and "apr-util-1.2.10-win32-src.zip" are mentioned.
> There are already newer versions available. What are the newer versions used
> for or is the "vstudio.apt" just outdated?
> *2.)* We should execute the "configure-aprutil.bat" after the "configure.bat"
> but there is no "configure-aprutil.bat" in the folder.
> *3.)* In the chapter "*Building log4cxx.dll" we should open
> "projects/log4cxx.dsw" with Visual Studio. The issue is, that there is not
> "projects" folder in this
> [apache-log4cxx-0.11.0.zip|https://downloads.apache.org/logging/log4cxx/0.11.0/apache-log4cxx-0.11.0.zip]
> .
> *4.)* However, I picked the "projects" folder from Version 10 and tried to
> open the "projects/log4cxx.dsw" but as a result the "xml" project can not be
> loaded.

> Creating a dll of this library should be more user friendly and straight
> forward.
> I hope my feedback helps to improve the library, its usability and
> documentation.
> Sincerely
> Brayan
