[these notes are for other people]
Okay, so I figured out that I need to install perl 5.10 then in visual studio set the include and lib directories in the project options to find the perl\lib\core directory.
Also figured out that mysql I needed to set the mysql\include and lib directories for mysql.h and the appropriate lib of the installed mysql version and not use the connector release, but the full release has developement code for it to be added when installing
The problem I ran into was that I still couldn't find zlib.h but the zlib.dll is inside the mysql/lib directory but couldn't find a .h for it in the mysql installation so I download zlib and pointed to that .h in the visual studio project include files configuration
On a good note, everything says it compiled, buncha warnings but compiled, not the problem I am Having ----
----
What next? most of the .exe's are manifests, whats the next step for putting all the files in an appropriate places, where does it compile the .exe's too, do I change the manifests to exe's and put them into the build folder, do I set something in visual studio to have it compile the exe's into the right folder for the server?
Anyone have any experience with VS2008 that can help me out with that?
