Compiling wxWidgets 2.8.12 and 2.9.3 under Visual Studio 11 Beta

I tried tried to compile wxWidgets and got errors pertaining to missing "wx/setup.h" header file. 

wxMSW-2.8.12\include\wx/platform.h(196): fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'wx/setup.h': No such file or directory

Are there simple configuration changes that I can make to allow me to compile the libraries?
Environment
Windows 7 64-bit
Visual C++ 11 Beta

fyi: I have successfully built wxWidgets on this machine using Visual C++ 9.

setup.h is actually in the "msvc" directory next to "wx" in "include". You need to include the msvc folder as well and it should work.

Compiling from command line should work, see http://wxwidgets.blogspot.com/2012/02/building-wxwidgets-with-microsoft.html (although I only tested this with 2.9, not 2.8). Notice that you should use a different COMPILER_PREFIX to avoid conflicts between your existing VC9 build and this one, e.g. nmake -f makefile.vc COMPILER_PREFIX=vc100.

If you use project files then you should check that importing VC9 versions worked correctly, perhaps something bad has happened during the import process.
