Why to use VC6 ?

It avoids DLL Hell as the runtime is present on all Windows Versions since XP.

I compile on Windows 10 64 bit.



How to compile:



$ZR is the zint root folder (this file is in $ZR\win32\zint_cmdline_vc6)



* get vc6 shell

if not available in the Start Menu, open a Command Prompt and run

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Bin\VCVARS32.BAT"



a) zlib (current version: 1.3.1)

* put zlib to $ZR\..\zlib

cd $ZR\..\zlib

nmake -f win32\Makefile.msc

-> generates zlib.lib, zlib1.dll



b) lpng (current version: 1.6.46)

* put libpng to $ZR\..\lpng

cd $ZR\..\lpng

nmake -f scripts\makefile.vcwin32

-> generates $ZR\..\lpng\libpng.lib



c) open zint_cmdline_vc6.dsw in this folder with the msvc6 gui and compile
