These project files were tested with the
free Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition.
Visual C++ Express does NOT include the Win32 SDK Headers.
They must be downloaded separately as documented in the
installation instructions at Microsoft - consequently that
extra installation must be referenced via a system variable:
Set MSSdk=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK
In order to compile you need a valid Zlib SDK - you can
download it from zlib.org in the archive zlib123-dll.zip -
I had unpacked them to $(zziplibdir)/zlib inside the
toplevel of the zziplib source tree. That SDK does ship
with a "zlib1.dll" runtime and "zdll.lib" import library.
The new Visual Studio has depracated most of the Win32 API
just as well as most of the Posix API. That provokes a lot
of warning message in surplus of the many warning message
that occur on every implicit conversion between signed and
unsigned types. Other compilers are more clever about
detecting real conversion issues, therefore they are not
going to be "patched away" with an explicit conversion in
the source files (I expect Microsoft to get it right somewhen).
