This seems unusual, but here is a description of a fix to the .NET 2010
IDE build problem.
I have worked almost 2 days researching the problem and testing the
build prototypes.
The automatic Microsoft Upgrade from VS 2008 created problematic
settings for the linker.
The resolution for each executable build project in the solution is to open
the project properties and make the following changes to:
Configuration Properties -> Linker -> Gemeral
Set Link Library Dependencies = No
Configuration Properties -> Linker -> Input
Set Additional Dependencies -> [For Release Configurations]
xerces-c_3.lib
Xalan-C_1.lib
[x} Inherit from parent or project defaults
Configuration Properties -> Linker -> Input
Set Additional Dependencies -> [For Debug Configurations]
xerces-c_3D.lib
Xalan-C_1D.lib
[x} Inherit from parent or project defaults
Adding the proper Xalan-C_1.lib resolves the links without the IDE doing
additional
searching of projects.
Setting the "Link Library Dependencies = No" also removes some automatic
searching
of projects for links that may not be required for the executable
application.
I will be making the corrections to the repository later today -- 12/4/2011.
Sincerely,
Steven J. Hathaway

My problems seem to be due to the way project dependencies/references
are handled in VS2010:

Easiest solution seems to be:
1) set Properties->Common Properties->Framework and
References->Reference Assembly Output to true
2) set Properties->Configuration Properties->Linker->General->Link
Library Dependencies to false
for each project that has this problem.
Still curious if other developers have encountered this problem, or if I
have something incorrectly configured in VS2010.

Subject: Visual Studio 2010 IDE Build Problem
I tried building the latest revision (1207768) of the xalanc trunk using
Visual Studio 2010 IDE, and am running into link problems.
Various projects (ie: XalanTransform) try to link against both the debug
and release builds of Xalan-C_1.lib.
Unchecking Configuration Properties->Linker->General->Link Library
Dependencies and then adding appropriate Xalan-C_1.lib to
Properties->Linker->General->Input->Additional Dependencies will likely
resolve this error.
Is anyone else seeing this problem? Have I configured something in
VS2010 incorrectly?
