premake not supporting vs2012?

Question

Here is my senario:

• I am trying to build TinyXML++ using vs2012
• Supposedly, premake is required to generate a *.sln for vs studio to build TinyXML++ lib files.
• But premake4.4 beta, I supposed the latest, seems not to support vs2012; It cannot build a *.sln for vs2012
• I can generate *sln for vs2010, but it won't pass a vs2012 build because the #include "stdafx.h" in ticpp.cpp, one of the cpp files in TinyXML++ project, gets error of cannot open source file

So I am wondering, how can I get around this problem? Thanks. Anyone has done this before? Thanks.

Answer 1

If you are on Windows, you can grab the latest nightly build. Otherwise, grab and build the latest sources, which do support Visual Studio 2012.

A release candidate build is coming soon, but there are still a few more bugs to get fixed.
