Make project building a no-brainer.

Reported by Thell Fowler | October 8th, 2009 @ 04:54 PM | in v1.0.0-rc1

Issue

Using a pure environment variable for Google Test and Mock creates the situation that every developer must go through setting up environment variables, and some (like myself) may not wish to,

Proposal

Have the solution and project files use a two prop sheets for the finding of the additional directories. The environment prop sheet would take precedent over the default submodule locations, and a developer could even remove the default submodule location prop sheet if they so desired.

The projects then would automaticallt inheret the values and would not need to be altered by every dev.

Additional Benefit

In the future, when other libraries are extracted from the project and made into their own libraries (like TinyXml) the project could easily be updated in the prop sheets to include the new lib.

A branch has already been submitted and placed in pu to do this.
