1 | Building instructions for the DLL versions of Zlib 1.3.1 |
| 2 | ======================================================== |

| 4 | This directory contains projects that build zlib and minizip using |
| 5 | Microsoft Visual C++ 9.0/10.0. |
| 6 | |
| 7 | You don't need to build these projects yourself. You can download the |
| 8 | binaries from: |

| 50 | Important |
| 51 | --------- |
| 52 | - To use zlibwapi.dll in your application, you must define the |
| 53 | macro ZLIB_WINAPI when compiling your application's source files. |
| 54 | |
| 55 | |
| 56 | Additional notes |
| 57 | ---------------- |
| 58 | - This DLL, named zlibwapi.dll, is compatible to the old zlib.dll built |
| 59 | by Gilles Vollant from the zlib 1.1.x sources, and distributed at |
| 60 | http://www.winimage.com/zLibDll |
| 61 | It uses the WINAPI calling convention for the exported functions, and |
| 62 | includes the minizip functionality. If your application needs that |
| 63 | particular build of zlib.dll, you can rename zlibwapi.dll to zlib.dll. |
| 64 | |
| 65 | - The new DLL was renamed because there exist several incompatible |
| 66 | versions of zlib.dll on the Internet. |
| 67 | |
| 68 | - There is also an official DLL build of zlib, named zlib1.dll. This one |
| 69 | is exporting the functions using the CDECL convention. See the file |
| 70 | win32\DLL_FAQ.txt found in this zlib distribution. |
| 71 | |
| 72 | - There used to be a ZLIB_DLL macro in zlib 1.1.x, but now this symbol |
| 73 | has a slightly different effect. To avoid compatibility problems, do |
| 74 | not define it here. |
