Setup Visual Studio Project about desktop-duplication-cpp HOT 3 CLOSED

Hi @ml-jo,

I'm pleased to hear that you use and like my little tool here.

I would guess the clang Toolset is advisable needed here. I suggest to stick with the default compiler.
This project was never meant to be compiled with Visual Studio directly. Qbs is a far superior build system.

From inspecting my rusty knowledge:

• 'PlainPixelShader.h' is generated from the 'PixelShader.hlsl'. Ensure you added these shaders to your project and can compile them.
  • You also need to mark the shaders as Pixelshader and Vertexshader respectively.
  • They use the shader model 4_0_level_9_3
• <AdditionalIncludeDirectories>$(OutDir)</AdditionalIncludeDirectories> - so the compiler finds the generated headers.
• Define NOMINMAX on the build system
• Add d3d11 as link library.

I hope you can make it work for you and hope to see some cool pull requests with shiny features.

This repo had a .vcproj until this commit: https://github.com/arBmind/desktop-duplication-cpp/tree/e49ecefc9b9f5a4736a645c41e49ccdfb6b015fb
It became painful to maintain two build systems so I removed it for the next refactoring.
But it might contain the details you need to get it working for you.

Thank you for the quick responses and the advice. The old commit helped me a lot to set up the project.
I will definitely propose my changes as a pull request. I am glad to participate in this great project.
