Visual studio installation not working. #44

Can someone please add detail guide on how to install this in visual studio 22?

Not many people use meson, I don't understand why build is focused on it and it's completely useless guide for VC users.
The current VC guide just says, install libxml2, link it and run nmake.
It does not work.

I installed libxml2 via vcpkg, even added package include and lib directories to VC path (even though vcpkg should already be integrating) and I am getting message:

..\libxml++\attribute.cc: fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'msvc_recommended_pragmas.h': No such file or directory

I have virtually no idea where this header is. Some search indicates that it is glibmm dependency, I installed that as well, but still getting the error.
Can someone who installed this before try installing libxml2 via vcpkg make this work and expalin me how.
