| 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: | |

| 47 | Important | |
| 48 | --------- | |
| 49 | - To use zlibwapi.dll in your application, you must define the | |
| 50 | macro ZLIB_WINAPI when compiling your application's source files. | |
| 51 | ||
| 52 | ||
| 53 | Additional notes | |
| 54 | ---------------- | |
| 55 | - This DLL, named zlibwapi.dll, is compatible to the old zlib.dll built | |
| 56 | by Gilles Vollant from the zlib 1.1.x sources, and distributed at | |
| 57 | http://www.winimage.com/zLibDll | |
| 58 | It uses the WINAPI calling convention for the exported functions, and | |
| 59 | includes the minizip functionality. If your application needs that | |
| 60 | particular build of zlib.dll, you can rename zlibwapi.dll to zlib.dll. | |
| 61 | ||
| 62 | - The new DLL was renamed because there exist several incompatible | |
| 63 | versions of zlib.dll on the Internet. | |
| 64 | ||
| 65 | - There is also an official DLL build of zlib, named zlib1.dll. This one | |
| 66 | is exporting the functions using the CDECL convention. See the file | |
| 67 | win32\DLL_FAQ.txt found in this zlib distribution. | |
| 68 | ||
| 69 | - There used to be a ZLIB_DLL macro in zlib 1.1.x, but now this symbol | |
| 70 | has a slightly different effect. To avoid compatibility problems, do | |
| 71 | not define it here. | |
