-"""Generates the gtest.def file to build Google Test as a DLL on Windows.
-
-SYNOPSIS
-       Put diagnostic messages from building gtest_dll_test_.exe into
-       BUILD_RESULTS_FILE and invoke
-
-         generate_gtest_def.py <BUILD_RESULTS_FILE
-
-       Reads output of VC++ linker and re-generates the src/gtest.def file
-       required for building gtest as a DLL.
-
-       Use this script if you modify Google Test's source code and Visual
-       Studio linker starts complaining about unresolved external symbols.
-       You may have to repeate the build/re-generate cycle several times
-       because VC++ limits the number of unresolved external symbols it can
-       report at a time.
-
-EXAMPLES
-         scons\scons.py | scripts\generate_gtest_def.py

-This tool is experimental.  Please report any problems to
-googletestframework@googlegroups.com.  You can read
