   4 This directory contains projects that build zlib and minizip using
   5 Microsoft Visual C++ 9.0/10.0.

   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.

  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.
