// IOW, this MIDL section is intended to provide a fully generic syntax
|

// content suitable for most cases (read: if you get errors, then it's quite
|
||||||
|
// probable that the error is on your side of the .idl setup).
|

|

// Also, note that the marked-as-generated _i.c file in the Visual Studio
|
||||||
|
// generator case needs to be referred to as $(IntDir)\foo_i.c at the
|
||||||
|
// project's file list, otherwise the compiler-side processing won't pick it
|
||||||
|
// up (for non-directory form, it ends up looking in project binary dir
|
||||||
|
// only). Perhaps there's something to be done to make this more automatic
|
||||||
|
// on the CMake side?
