Compiling and Installing
========================
0) Check whether a gtest directory exists in the upper level directory. If
you checkout the code from github via "git clone", this gtest directory
won't exist and you won't be able to build the tests described below. To
avoid this problem consider downloading one of the release tar balls which
contains gtest already and copying the gest directory from there to your
protobuf directory:
https://github.com/google/protobuf/releases
1) Open protobuf.sln in Microsoft Visual Studio.
2) Choose "Debug" or "Release" configuration as desired.*
3) From the Build menu, choose "Build Solution". Wait for compiling to finish.
