Visual Studio 2012 Creating a project from existing source.. Makefile Project
-
Hi, I have C console application which is a makefile project so my question is how do I create a project from existing source When I go to File-> new from existing code I first select C++ Then the project location -> console application. Point is creating a makefile application seems only available when creating a new project (without the existing source option) Please advise Thanks

In Visual Studio create a new blank project. Using Windows Explorer copy all the source files to the project location. Expand the project tree in Visual Studio's Solution Explorer window. Right click on each folder (Header Files, Resource Files etc). Select "Add" and add the relevant files to the folder. You could also create a new dummy project, delete all its source files, then add your files as above.
