How to create multiple DLL files (.mexw32 files) in one Visual Studio project?

Question

I support the Matlab library, which consists of a huge number of MEX files. So far I have created a library with a Matlab script, but now I would like to start using the Microsoft Visual Studio IDE for the entire build process. I got pretty far with the following instructions:

• Compiling a MEX File Using Visual Studio
• Matlab 7.1+ and Visual Studio 2005
• MathWorks: Custom Build on Windows Systems

However, these instructions only work with one MEX file. The problem I am facing is how to create multiple .mexw32 targets (or, equivalently .dll) within a single Visual Studio project? Creating a separate project (within the same solution) for MEX files is not an option that I want to consider. These files are considered hundreds.

For those unfamiliar with Matlab, MEX files are extension files written in C ++ and compiled mainly into .dll files with a special extension .mexw32. Each of them exports a single entry point void mexFunction(...). AFAIK, you cannot link them to a single .dll, which I would rather do.
