+Building instructions for the DLL versions of Zlib 1.2.11
+========================================================
+
+This directory contains projects that build zlib and minizip using
+Microsoft Visual C++ 9.0/10.0.
+
+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 for Visual Studio 2008 (32 bits or 64 bits)
+--------------------------------------------------------------
+- Decompress current zlib, including all contrib/* files
+- Compile assembly code (with Visual Studio Command Prompt) by running:
+ bld_ml64.bat (in contrib\masmx64)
+ bld_ml32.bat (in contrib\masmx86)
+- Open contrib\vstudio\vc9\zlibvc.sln with Microsoft Visual C++ 2008
+- Or run: vcbuild /rebuild contrib\vstudio\vc9\zlibvc.sln "Release|Win32"
+
+Build instructions for Visual Studio 2010 (32 bits or 64 bits)
+--------------------------------------------------------------
+- Decompress current zlib, including all contrib/* files
+- Open contrib\vstudio\vc10\zlibvc.sln with Microsoft Visual C++ 2010
+
+Build instructions for Visual Studio 2012 (32 bits or 64 bits)
+--------------------------------------------------------------
+- Decompress current zlib, including all contrib/* files
+- Open contrib\vstudio\vc11\zlibvc.sln with Microsoft Visual C++ 2012
+
+Build instructions for Visual Studio 2013 (32 bits or 64 bits)
+--------------------------------------------------------------
+- Decompress current zlib, including all contrib/* files
+- Open contrib\vstudio\vc12\zlibvc.sln with Microsoft Visual C++ 2013
+
+Build instructions for Visual Studio 2015 (32 bits or 64 bits)
+--------------------------------------------------------------
+- Decompress current zlib, including all contrib/* files
+- Open contrib\vstudio\vc14\zlibvc.sln with Microsoft Visual C++ 2015
+
+
+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.
