goddamn I hate GUI programming

I'm trying to integrate VTK, a medical visualization library thingamajig, into this piece of shit they call MFC and Visual Studio is shitting errors by the bushel because I'm not doing everything through the fucking wizard

I AM NOT A HAPPY MAN

Wanna use the visualization toolkit but you want to build your project with the usual VC++ interface instead of their cmake? too bad, we're ramming it down your throat.
(targeting a specific technology == ramming it down your throat) = false;
PROTIP: CMake can generate VS projects
Though like most things in programming, the programmer (justthe CMakefile builder) would need to design their work to support multiple platforms (eg for Make and VS instead of solely Make)
