How to build a sample with Visual Studio? #114

Sorry for the basic question, but it is not obvious how to do it, so: How can I build and run a sample application? I have run PRE_BUILD.bat, but what do I have to do afterwards?

It installs a Visual Studio extension, but what does that do? I can not find any entry in the Visual Studio menues and there are no project templates? What do I have to do after PRE_BUILD.bat in order to get a Visual Studio project of a sample application which I can build and run?

There are Visual Studio projects/solutions under: The-Forge/Examples_3/Unit_Tests/PC Visual Studio 2017/

Did you get it up and running?

Ah, yes. They compile and run fine! :) Sorry for bothering you. (I wasn't expecting the sample applications in a solution named "Unit_Tests".)
