This document describes how to install FoldersTree control with three compilers:
The current version of FoldersTree is distributed in the form of a DLL (fldtree.dll). For linking with the DLL you need an import library (fldtree.lib). Because different compilers need different import libraries we don't ship the file fldtree.lib with FoldersTree DLL. Instead you need to make the import library yourself. It is simple:
Firstly you need to unpack the distribution archive (fldtree.zip). You can do it with most archivers (such as WinZip, WinRAR, ZipMagic and many others)... Well you already did this :-)
lib.exe /def:fldtree.def /machine:IX86
implib.exe -c fldtree.lib fldtree.dll
dlltool.exe -l fldtree.lib -d fldtree.def -D fldtree.dll fldtree.dll
Now you have the file fldtree.lib, which is the import library you need for your compiler!
Copy the files fldtree.h, fldtree.dll and fldtree.lib to the appropriate directories accessible to your compiler. (See the documentation of your compiler about which directories are appropriate.)
Every time you'll link your program (which uses FoldersTree control), you need to link it with fldtree.lib you created. Do not attempt to link directly with fldtree.dll! Make sure that you distribute the file fldtree.dll with your program!
See the file doc\index.html in the FoldersTree distribution about FoldersTree API.
