Description:
Build with CMake and Visual Studio 2013 Community version:

mysql-connector-odbc-5.3.4/driver/driverw.def(28): fatal error LNK1118: syntax error in 'VERSION' statement

How to repeat:
See above.

Suggested fix:
Change the file driver\driver.def.cmake to avoid using patch version:

VERSION 0@CONNECTOR_MAJOR@.@CONNECTOR_MINOR_PADDED@.@CONNECTOR_PATCH_PADDED@
=>
VERSION 0@CONNECTOR_MAJOR@.@CONNECTOR_MINOR_PADDED@

Or,

Avoid using it.  We can use the rc file instead.

Hello William ZHANG,

Verified based on internal discussion with dev's.

Thanks,
Chiranjeevi.
