问题


I want to use the zlib library in my c++ project. So, I have downloaded zlib library(zlib_1_2_8_msvc2015_64.zip). Then, I have created zlib folder under "C:\Program Files\Zlib". Then, Extract zlib_1_2_8_msvc2015_64.zip file into "C:\Program Files\Zlib".

After that, I have opened visual studio 2017 and goes to property => C/C++ => general => additional include directories and added that path : "C:\Program Files\Zlib\msvc2015_64".

After that, I have added #include <zlib.h> header file in my project. but, not working.

So, How to use zlib library in visual studio 2017?


回答1:


For static library installation , include the zlibstatic.lib and directories in the linker additional libraries and directories. For dynamic library , include the zlib.lib in the linker and copy the zlib.dll to the project output directory.

Another option is to install vcpkg ( MS packager to install windows based open source projects) and use powershell command like so .\vcpkg install zlib:x64-windows-static. The zlib can be auto integrated to your project using .\vcpkg integrate install




回答2:


You have specified where to find the header files.

You also need to find which library to bind and where to find it.

For Visual Studio 2012:

In linker section -> General -> additional library directories, you can specify the path where the library resides

In linker section -> Input -> additional dependancy , you can specify the actual lib name to bind

Its a simple fix copy all contents of msvc2015_64 directory into zlib directory and you are good to go.
