== Visual Studio settings ==
before compiling
=== Adding paths ===
Adding paths for include files and libary files
To add newly added libraries to default search path for compilation and debugging :
start Visual Studio and go to Tools->Options
Add external Directories to "Microsoft Visual Studio" from Tools->Options, select "Project and Solutions" anf from there "VC++ Directories".

Select "Include files" from "Show directories for:" and add directories :

C:\Zlib\include
C:\SDL\include
C:\freetype\include
C:\libjpeg\include
C:\libpng\include
C:\Boost\include
C:\GnuWin32\include

Next add Library locations of libraries, Select "Library Files" from "Show directories for:" and add directories:

C:\Zlib\lib
C:\SDL\lib
C:\freetype\lib
C:\libjpeg\lib
C:\libpng\lib
C:\Boost\lib
C:\GnuWin32\lib

=== Create Solution ===
1) To create solution for '''stellarium'''
* Select "New...->Project" from "File"-menu
* From "Visual C++" type select general and from there select "Empty Project"
* Enter name form project "Stellarium"
* Enter name for Solution "Stellarium"
* If You want to change the location of project just do it ;}
* Click "OK"

Now there should be a solution called "stellarium" and under it project called "stellarium". Next step is to set the project properties

2) Project Properties
Select "Project->Properties"
* Select "All Configurations" from "Configuration:", browse and set
in "Configuration Properties" and set

General :
Output Directory as '''C:\Stellarium'''
Configuration Type as '''Appllication (.exe)'''
C/C++
General
Additional Include Directories:
...\stellarium\src\planetsephems;
...\stellarium\src\stelutils;
...\stellarium\src\msdirent;
..\stellarium\src;
Preprocessor
Preprocessor Definitions:
_USE_MATH_DEFINES;
_CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE;
_ATL_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE;
main=SDL_main;
POSIX;
WIN32;
WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN

Additipnal Dependices
msvcrt.lib

freetype221.lib
libpng13.lib
SDL.lib
libjpeg.lib
libintl.lib
SDLmain.lib
zdll.lib
Opengl32.lib
Glu32.lib
Ignore Specific Libraries as '''LIBCMT.lib'''
System
SubSystem as '''Console (/SUBSYSTEM:CONSOLE)'''

* Select "Release" from "Configuration:", browse and set
in "Configuration Properties" and set
C/C++
General
Optimization as '''Optimization: Maximize Speed (/O2)'''

* Select "Debug" from "Configuration:", browse and set
in "Configuration Properties" and set
C/C++
General
Debug Information Format as '''Program Database for Edit & Continue (/ZI)'''
Optimization
Optimization as '''Disabled (/Od)'''

Output Files
Program Database File Name as '''$(TargetDir)\vc80.pdb'''
Linker
Input
Ignore Specific Libraries as '''LIBCMT.lib'''
Debugging
Generate Debug Info as '''Yes(/DEBUG)'''

2) Add files to "stellarium" project
Add existing files to project:
"Header Files" : '''Add existing files''', select all header files from ...\Stellarium\src
"Source Files" : '''Add existing files''', select all header files from ...\Stellarium\src

Now we have solution and project for stellarium, next thing is to add projects for "iniparser", "msdirent", "plantetsephms" and "stelutils". The creation of these projects is similar to "stellarium" project except the :

"Project type"s are'''Static Library (.lib)'''

and the

"C/C++->Preprocessor->Preprocessor Defines"s are
'''_CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE;_USE_MATH_DEFINES'''

also the "stelutils"-project should have
"Additional Include Directories" as
...\stellarium\src\stelutils\iniparser
...\stellarium\src\planetsephems;
...\stellarium\src\stelutils;
...\stellarium\src\msdirent;
...\stellarium\src

=== Create dependencies ===
To create dependencies right-click on "Stellarium" solution and select "Properties"
1) check that the "Single startup project" in "Common Properties->Startup Project" is checkd and the project selected is "Stellarium".
2) on "Project Dependencies" '''Stellarium is depended all other projects''' and other projects are independed

== Build ==
Yes, that's all folks! Just try to build the solution first on "Debug"-mode

== Run ==
Before actually run the application You must copy the libraries *.dll's into the target directory of build e.g. C:\Stellarium or have the *.dll's in Your path (I prefere the first: copy the dll's)

Also the directory structure of config/data/texture and so on must be present in the target directory e.g. C:\Stellarium

That's all !

[[Now! Just have fun]] and don't hesitate to contact me if You have problems and/or suggestions
