-ZLIB DATA COMPRESSION LIBRARY
-
-zlib 1.2.11 is a general purpose data compression library. All the code is
-thread safe. The data format used by the zlib library is described by RFCs
-(Request for Comments) 1950 to 1952 in the files
-http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1950.txt (zlib format), rfc1951.txt (deflate format)
-and rfc1952.txt (gzip format).
-
-All functions of the compression library are documented in the file zlib.h
-(volunteer to write man pages welcome, contact zlib@gzip.org). Two compiled
-examples are distributed in this package, example and minigzip. The example_d
-and minigzip_d flavors validate that the zlib1.dll file is working correctly.
-
-Questions about zlib should be sent to <zlib@gzip.org>. The zlib home page
-is http://zlib.net/ . Before reporting a problem, please check this site to
-verify that you have the latest version of zlib; otherwise get the latest
-version and check whether the problem still exists or not.
-
-PLEASE read DLL_FAQ.txt, and the the zlib FAQ http://zlib.net/zlib_faq.html
-before asking for help.
-
-
-Manifest:
-
-The package zlib-1.2.11-win32-x86.zip will contain the following files:
-
- README-WIN32.txt This document
- ChangeLog Changes since previous zlib packages
- DLL_FAQ.txt Frequently asked questions about zlib1.dll
- zlib.3.pdf Documentation of this library in Adobe Acrobat format
-
- example.exe A statically-bound example (using zlib.lib, not the dll)
- example.pdb Symbolic information for debugging example.exe
-
- example_d.exe A zlib1.dll bound example (using zdll.lib)
- example_d.pdb Symbolic information for debugging example_d.exe
-
- minigzip.exe A statically-bound test program (using zlib.lib, not the dll)
- minigzip.pdb Symbolic information for debugging minigzip.exe
-
- minigzip_d.exe A zlib1.dll bound test program (using zdll.lib)
- minigzip_d.pdb Symbolic information for debugging minigzip_d.exe
-
- zlib.h Install these files into the compilers' INCLUDE path to
- zconf.h compile programs which use zlib.lib or zdll.lib
-
- zdll.lib Install these files into the compilers' LIB path if linking
- zdll.exp a compiled program to the zlib1.dll binary
-
- zlib.lib Install these files into the compilers' LIB path to link zlib
- zlib.pdb into compiled programs, without zlib1.dll runtime dependency
- (zlib.pdb provides debugging info to the compile time linker)
-
- zlib1.dll Install this binary shared library into the system PATH, or
- the program's runtime directory (where the .exe resides)
- zlib1.pdb Install in the same directory as zlib1.dll, in order to debug
- an application crash using WinDbg or similar tools.
-
-All .pdb files above are entirely optional, but are very useful to a developer
-attempting to diagnose program misbehavior or a crash. Many additional
-important files for developers can be found in the zlib127.zip source package
-available from http://zlib.net/ - review that package's README file for details.

-Acknowledgments:
-
-The deflate format used by zlib was defined by Phil Katz. The deflate and
-zlib specifications were written by L. Peter Deutsch. Thanks to all the
-people who reported problems and suggested various improvements in zlib; they
-are too numerous to cite here.
