Building 1.12.2: source files apr.h apu.h missing

[jlpo...@gmail.com]

I have staged version-1.12.2 with http://svn.osdn.net/svnroot/tortoisesvn/tags/version-1.12.2 (revision 28653 - Aug 4th)

Using Visual Studio 2019 version 16.2.1 which I just installed and using Builder 142.

I'm getting error messages:

cannot open source file "apu.h"
cannot open source file "apr.h"

I seldom compile project on Windows, but I have done so with some other projects, so I'm not new to the environment. (I prefer Gentoo Linux.)

Do I need to make the Apache Portable Runtime (APR) project to create the missing header files? If so, version 1.7.0?

What is strange is many of the other files from "apr" are present, e.g. apr_dso.h, apr_file_info.h, apr_errno.h &etc., so I think apr.h would be present unless is some header file that has to be made for whichever environment the compiler is in, e.g. Windows or Linux.

please have a look at the build.txt file in the root of the TSVN working copy. It explains how to build TSVN.

Since only the TSVN part itself is done in the VS solution file, the other libs are built using the build script. This has the advantage that the libs are only built once and development can then be done without ever having to rebuild those libs (until they're updated).

Perfect.  I looked for README files and didn't think to explore other *.txt files.  Thank you.
