How to get FFTW++ working on windows? (for dummies)

Question

I\'m using Windows 10 and Visual Studio 2015. In C++, I need to get the Fourier-transform of an image for applying filters on it. It seems that FFTW++ is the ideal solution

Answer 1

Thanks for this, it solved the issue I was having. Here is my contribution to the answer:

The console application defaults to x86 arch. I had to use the 32-bit dll from the FFTW folks. Make sure you specify /machine:x86 when invoking lib This is with VS2017 community
