To build:
2002-05-21 19:06:08 -04:00
0) On the main menu, select "File | Open Workspace" and then
select "libpng.dsw".
1) On the main menu Select "Build | Set Active configuration".
2000-05-29 09:58:03 -04:00
Among the configurations beginning with "libpng" select the
one you wish to build (the corresponding "zlib" configuration
will be built automatically).
2002-05-21 19:06:08 -04:00
2) Select "Build | Clean"
2000-05-29 09:58:03 -04:00
2002-05-21 19:06:08 -04:00
3) Select "Build | Rebuild All". Ignore warning messages about
not being able to find certain include files (e.g., m68881.h,
alloc.h).
2000-05-29 09:58:03 -04:00
4) Look in the appropriate "win32" subdirectories for both "zlib"
and "libpng" binaries.
This project will build the PNG Development Group's "official" versions of
libpng and zlib libraries:
2002-02-22 00:14:23 -05:00
libpng12.dll (default version, currently C code only)
2002-05-21 19:06:08 -04:00
libpng12a.dll (C + Assembler version)
libpng12b.dll (C + Assembler debug version)
libpng12d.dll (C code debug version)
libpng12vb.dll (version for VB, uses "stdcall" protocol)
2002-02-22 00:14:23 -05:00
libpng12[c,e-m].dll (reserved for official versions)
libpng12[n-z].dll (available for private versions)
2000-06-04 15:29:29 -04:00
zlib.dll (default version, currently C code only)
2000-05-29 09:58:03 -04:00
zlibd.dll (debug version)
2002-05-21 19:06:08 -04:00
zlibvb.dll (version for Visual Basic, uses "stdcall" protocol)
2000-05-29 09:58:03 -04:00
If you change anything in libpng, or select different compiler settings,
please change the library name to an unreserved name, and define
2000-06-04 15:29:29 -04:00
DLLFNAME_POSTFIX and (PRIVATEBUILD or SPECIALBUILD) accordingly. DLLFNAME_POSTFIX
should correspond to a string in the range of "N" to "Z" depending on the letter
you choose for your private version.
All DLLs built by this project use the Microsoft dynamic C runtime library
MSVCRT.DLL (MSVCRTD.DLL for debug versions). If you distribute any of the
above mentioned libraries you should also include this DLL in your package.
For a list of files that are redistributable in Visual C++ 6.0, see
Common\Redist\Redist.txt on Disc 1 of the Visual C++ 6.0 product CDs.

5) For an example workspace that builds an application using the resulting
DLLs, go to Libpng's contrib\msvctest directory and use it to build
and run "pngtest".
