How to compile zstd with Visual Studio

  1. Install Visual Studio e.g. VS 2015 Community Edition (it's free).
  2. Download the latest version of zstd from https://github.com/facebook/zstd/releases
  3. Decompress ZIP archive.
  4. Go to decompressed directory then to projects then VS2010 and open zstd.sln
  5. Visual Studio will ask about converting VS2010 project to VS2015 and you should agree.
  6. Change Debug to Release and if you have 64-bit Windows change also Win32 to x64.
  7. Press F7 on keyboard or select BUILD from the menu bar and choose Build Solution.
  8. If compilation will be fine a compiled executable will be in projects\VS2010\bin\x64\Release\zstd.exe
