Chris@40: Notes on Using the Pre-compiled libsndfile DLL. Chris@40: =============================================== Chris@40: Chris@40: In order to use this pre-compiled DLL with Visual Studio, you will need to Chris@40: generate a .LIB file from the DLL. Chris@40: Chris@40: This can be achieved as follows: Chris@40: Chris@40: 1) In a CMD window, change to the directory containing this file and Chris@40: run the command: Chris@40: Chris@40: lib /machine:i386 /def:libsndfile-1.def Chris@40: Chris@40: You now have two files: Chris@40: Chris@40: libsndfile-1.dll Chris@40: libsndfile-1.lib Chris@40: Chris@40: to be used with VisualStudio. Chris@40: Chris@40: If the lib command fails with a command saying "'lib' is not recognized as Chris@40: an internal or external command, operable program or batch file", you need Chris@40: to find the location of "lib.exe" and add that directory to your PATH Chris@40: environment variable. Another alternative is to use the "Visual Studio 2005 Chris@40: Command Prompt" Start menu item: Chris@40: Chris@40: Start -> Chris@40: All Programs -> Chris@40: Visual Studio 2005 -> Chris@40: Visual Studio Tools -> Chris@40: Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt Chris@40: Chris@40: If for some reason these instructions don't work for you or you are still Chris@40: not able to use the libsndfile DLL with you project, please do not contact Chris@40: the main author of libsndfile. Instead, join the libsndfile-users mailing Chris@40: list : Chris@40: Chris@40: http://www.mega-nerd.com/libsndfile/lists.html Chris@40: Chris@40: and ask a question there.
