[MSVC] implement autolinking feature
------------------------------------
Key: STDCXX-675
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STDCXX-675
Project: C++ Standard Library
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Configuration
Affects Versions: 4.2.0, 4.1.4, 4.1.3, 4.1.2
Environment: MSVC, ICC/Windows
Reporter: Farid Zaripov
Assignee: Farid Zaripov
Priority: Trivial
Fix For: 4.2.1
At the moment the users of the library should explicitly specify the used
library name in linker command line. Here might be problems if the user's
project was compiled with config.h for some configuration (let's say 12d) but
linked with library for another configuration (i.e. libstd12s.lib).
The MSVC and ICC/Windows has the posibility to specify the library using
#pragma comment (lib, libname) directive. So #including any header from the
library will leads to linking automatically with the proper library file.
