Chris@4: Hello
Chris@4: 
Chris@4:   This is a small list of steps in order to build portaudio
Chris@4: (Currently v19-devel) into a VS2005 DLL and lib file.
Chris@4: This DLL contains all 5 current Win32 PA APIS (MME/DS/ASIO/WASAPI/WDMKS)
Chris@4: 
Chris@4: 1)Copy the source dirs that comes with the ASIO SDK inside src\hostapi\asio\ASIOSDK
Chris@4:   so you should now have example:
Chris@4:   
Chris@4:   portaudio19svn\src\hostapi\asio\ASIOSDK\common
Chris@4:   portaudio19svn\src\hostapi\asio\ASIOSDK\host
Chris@4:   portaudio19svn\src\hostapi\asio\ASIOSDK\host\sample
Chris@4:   portaudio19svn\src\hostapi\asio\ASIOSDK\host\pc
Chris@4:   portaudio19svn\src\hostapi\asio\ASIOSDK\host\mac (not needed)
Chris@4:   
Chris@4:   You dont need "driver"
Chris@4: 
Chris@4:   To build without ASIO (or another Host API) see the "Building without ASIO support" section below.
Chris@4:   
Chris@4: 2)
Chris@4:   *If you have Visual Studio 6.0*, please make sure you have it updated with the latest (and final)
Chris@4:   microsoft libraries for it, namely:
Chris@4:   
Chris@4:   Service pack 5:         
Chris@4:      Latest known URL:  
Chris@4:      http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/vstudio/aa718363.aspx 
Chris@4: 	 Yes there EXISTS a service pack 6 , but the processor pack (below) isnt compatible with it.
Chris@4: 	 
Chris@4:   Processor Pack(only works with above SP5)
Chris@4:      Latest known URL:
Chris@4:      http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/vstudio/Aa718349.aspx
Chris@4: 	 This isn't absolutely required for portaudio, but if you plan on using SSE intrinsics and similar things.
Chris@4: 	 Up to you to decide upon Service pack 5 or 6 depending on your need for intrinsics.
Chris@4: 
Chris@4:   Platform SDK (Feb 2003) : 
Chris@4:      Latest known URL:  
Chris@4:      http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/platformsdk/sdkupdate/psdk-full.htm
Chris@4: 	 (This will allow your code base to be x64 friendly, with correct defines 
Chris@4: 	 for LONG_PTR and such)
Chris@4: 	 NOTE A) Yes you have to use IE activex scripts to install that - wont work in Firefox, you 
Chris@4: 	 may have to temporarily change tyour default browser(aint life unfair)
Chris@4: 	 NOTE B) Dont forget to hit "Register PSDK Directories with Visual Studio". 
Chris@4: 	 you can make sure its right in VC6 if you open tools/options/directories/include files and you see SDK 2003 as the FIRST entry
Chris@4: 	 (it must be the same for libs)
Chris@4:   
Chris@4:   DirectX 9.0 SDK Update - (Summer 2003)
Chris@4:     Latest known URL:
Chris@4:     http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=9216652f-51e0-402e-b7b5-feb68d00f298&displaylang=en
Chris@4:     Again register the links in VC6, and check inside vc6 if headers are in second place right after SDk 2003
Chris@4: 	
Chris@4:   *If you have 7.0(VC.NET/2001) or 7.1(VC.2003) *
Chris@4:   then I suggest you open portaudio.dsp (and convert if needed)
Chris@4:  
Chris@4:   *If you have Visual Studio 2005 * (or later), I suggest you open the portaudio.sln file
Chris@4:   which contains 2 projects (portaudio & portaudio_static) each with 6 configurations: Win32/x64 in both Debug, Release and ReleaseMinDependency,
Chris@4:   last of which removes dependency of all but basic OS system DLLs.
Chris@4: 
Chris@4:   hit compile and hope for the best.
Chris@4:  
Chris@4: 3)Now in any  project, in which you require portaudio,
Chris@4:   you can just link with portaudio_x86.lib, (or _x64) and of course include the 
Chris@4:   relevant headers
Chris@4:   (portaudio.h, and/or pa_asio.h , pa_x86_plain_converters.h) See (*)
Chris@4:   
Chris@4: 4) Your new exe should now use portaudio_xXX.dll.
Chris@4: 
Chris@4: 
Chris@4: Have fun!
Chris@4: 
Chris@4: (*): you may want to add/remove some DLL entry points.
Chris@4: Right now those 6 entries are _not_ from portaudio.h
Chris@4: 
Chris@4: (from portaudio.def)

Chris@4: *** Building without ASIO support ***
Chris@4: 
Chris@4: To build PortAudio without ASIO support you need to:
Chris@4:   A. Make sure your project doesn't try to build any ASIO SDK files.
Chris@4:      If you're using one of the shipped projects, remove the ASIO related files 
Chris@4:      from the project.
Chris@4: 
Chris@4:   B. Make sure your project doesn't try to build the PortAudio ASIO
Chris@4:      implementation files:
Chris@4: 	      src/hostapi/pa_asio.cpp
Chris@4:         src/hostapi/iasiothiscallresolver.cpp
Chris@4:      If you're using one of the shipped projects remove them from the project.
Chris@4: 
Chris@4:   C. Set the PA_USE_ASIO preprocessor symbol to zero (i.e. PA_USE_ASIO=0) in the project properties.
Chris@4:      In VS2005 this can be added under
Chris@4:      Project Properties > Configuration Properties > C/C++ > Preprocessor > Preprocessor Definitions
Chris@4: 
Chris@4:      Setting PA_USE_ASIO=0 stops src/os/win/pa_win_hostapis.c 
Chris@4:      from trying to initialize the PA ASIO implementation.
Chris@4: 
Chris@4:   D. Remove PaAsio_* entry points from portaudio.def, or comment them out with ;
Chris@4: 
Chris@4: 
Chris@4: A similar procedure can be used to omit any of the other host APIs from the 
Chris@4: build. The relevant preprocessor symbols used by pa_win_hostapis.c are:
Chris@4: PA_USE_WMME, PA_USE_DSOUND, PA_USE_ASIO, PA_USE_WASAPI and PA_USE_WDMKS
