1YAJL has been successfully built using Visual Studio 8.  CMake, a
2build file generator, is used to build the software.  CMake supports
3several different build environments, so you may either build YAJL
4using the IDE via the following steps:
5
61. acquire cmake (http://www.cmake.org)
72. mkdir build
83. cd build
94. cmake ..
105. devenv YetAnotherJSONParser.sln /project ALL_BUILD /build Release
116. build output is left in build/yajl-X.Y.Z
12
13Or you can build from the command line using nmake:
14
151. Click Start > Programs > Microsoft Visual Studio > Visual Studio
16Tools > Visual Studio Command Prompt -- for your version of Visual
17Studio, which will open a command prompt.  You may verify that the
18compiler is in your path by typing "cl /?" at the prompt.
192. cd C:\path\to\yajl\source\
203. mkdir build
214. cd build
225. cmake -G"NMake Makefiles" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
236. nmake
247. nmake install
25
26Earlier versions of visual studio and other build generators haven't
27been thoroughly tested, but should work without any major issues.
