History

Christophe Chevalier bb85fe064d Update .gitignore for new location of msbuild projects It seems that when the projects folder was moved to the new path in `cfe5fe4581`, the `build/bin` was changed to `build/` instead of `bin/` and building makes a lot of stuff show up in git.		2016-09-23 21:47:27 +02:00

Projects for various integrated development environments (IDE)

The following projects are included with the zstd distribution:

cmake - CMake project contributed by Artyom Dymchenko
VS2005 - Visual Studio 2005 project
VS2008 - Visual Studio 2008 project
VS2010 - Visual Studio 2010 project (which also works well with Visual Studio 2012, 2013, 2015)
VS_scripts - command line scripts prepared for Visual Studio compilation without IDE

Install Visual Studio e.g. VS 2015 Community Edition (it's free).
Download the latest version of zstd from https://github.com/facebook/zstd/releases
Decompress ZIP archive.
Go to decompressed directory then to projects then VS2010 and open zstd.sln
Visual Studio will ask about converting VS2010 project to VS2015 and you should agree.
Change Debug to Release and if you have 64-bit Windows change also Win32 to x64.
Press F7 on keyboard or select BUILD from the menu bar and choose Build Solution.
If compilation will be fine a compiled executable will be in projects\VS2010\bin\x64\Release\zstd.exe
