    ZLib

    Hi,

    I've got a problem with including ZLib in to my application.

    I've downloaded the newest Version from http://gzip.org and unzipped it.

    ->I do not know what file I've got to include.

    PLEASE HELP!

    Thanks

      You have to include zlib.h

      As far as I remember it creates a library file (at least for the msvc
      project, not to sure about the unix build).

      I used to statically link that to my MSVC applications (resulting in one
      executable instead of a executable and DLL).

          OK...,
          but I wanted to have a single file.
          Is the a solution?

          Thanks

              Hi,

              If you link statically (at least under MSVC) that creates a single
              executable (you still have to create a lib first though). Must be possible
              with g++ under *nix too, but I haven't tried the latter.

              I could look up my MSVC settings if you use that.

              Regards, Ron AF Greve.

                  First of all you need to look at what you downloaded.
                  If there is already a library, you can use that prebuilt
                  library.
                  IN any other case you first need to build that library. If you
                  downlaoded the right zip-file it may have come with a project
                  you just open and let it build the library.

                  You then switch back to your original program and use that library
                  just as you would use any other library (add it to your project, include
                  the header file where you need to).
