Building instructions for the DLL versions of Zlib 1.21
|
|
=======================================================
|
|
|
|
This directory contains projects that build zlib and minizip using
|
|
Microsoft Visual C++ 7.0/7.1.
|
|
|
|
You don't need to build these projects yourself. You can download the
|
|
binaries from:
|
|
http://www.winimage.com/zLibDll
|
|
|
|
More information can be found at this site.
|
|

|
|
Build instructions
|
|
------------------
|
|
- Unzip zlib*.zip and copy the files from contrib\vstudio\vc7,
|
|
from contrib\vstudio\masmx86 and from contrib\minizip into the same
|
|
directory.
|
|
- Download the crtdll library from
|
|
http://www.winimage.com/zLibDll/crtdll.zip
|
|
Unzip crtdll.zip to extract crtdll.lib.
|
|
- If you are using x86, use the Release target.
|
|
- Open zlibvc.sln with Microsoft Visual C++ 7.0 or 7.1
|
|
(Visual Studio .Net 2002 or 2003).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Important
|
|
---------
|
|
- To use zlibwapi.dll in your application, you must define the
|
|
macro ZLIB_WINAPI when compiling your application's source files.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Additional notes
|
|
----------------
|
|
- This DLL, named zlibwapi.dll, is compatible to the old zlib.dll built
|
|
by Gilles Vollant from the zlib 1.1.x sources, and distributed at
|
|
http://www.winimage.com/zLibDll
|
|
It uses the WINAPI calling convention for the exported functions, and
|
|
includes the minizip functionality. If your application needs that
|
|
particular build of zlib.dll, you can rename zlibwapi.dll to zlib.dll.
|
|
|
|
- The new DLL was renamed because there exist several incompatible
|
|
versions of zlib.dll on the Internet.
|
|
|
|
- There is also an official DLL build of zlib, named zlib1.dll. This one
|
|
is exporting the functions using the CDECL convention. See the file
|
|
win32\DLL_FAQ.txt found in this zlib distribution.
|
|
|
|
- There used to be a ZLIB_DLL macro in zlib 1.1.x, but now this symbol
|
|
has a slightly different effect. To avoid compatibility problems, do
|
|
not define it here.
