Including Kiss_FFT library in visual studio and Eclips - c

I started with learning C a few days ago and i would like to include KISS_FFT Library in visual studio and Eclips. Please help me how i can do that.
You will find the library in this link:

Just add the kiss_fft.c file to your build project.
If you are using real and/or multi-dimensional FFTs, you will also need to build the appropriate .c files from tools/
I do not use Visual Studio nor Eclipse, but a quick googling found this and this

Compiling a Visual Studio dll and using it with cygwin

my question is very simple.
I'm dealing with portaudio with the support of ASIO drivers for a university assignment. With Visual Studio I managed to compile everything an also to create a dll and now I must do the same but with cygwin. Is it possible to use the dll created with Visual Studio 2019 with cygwin? If it isn't, there is a way to do it?
Thanks in advance
Yes, you must have myfile.h myfile.dll and myfile.lib .
your goal is to produce myfile.a and put it in lib directory.
For that there is a tool Lib2a that take myfile.dll and myfile.lib in input and give myfile.a file.

How do I Compile Just One C File in Visual Studio 2019?

I don't have experience using Visual Studio. The university is conducting a C coding competition and forcing students to use Visual Studio. To practice I created 2 files: "to print helloworld", "finding smallest in the array". Visual studio builds ALL files and I want to create multiple files to save time and keep it ready to code but if I am working on one question and build it, all files get built. How to build one file? Please help.
You need to organize your code into Projects and Solutions. You use one Project per program you write and then group them in a Solution.

How To Use Flex on Windows

I apologize if this is a dumb question, but I have 0 experience with this tool and wanted to know if I'm going about using it properly. I've downloaded flex which, upon compiling my lex file, produces a C file which then needs to be compiled separately. Is this the best way to do it?
It's possible to set up a Visual Studio project that uses flex as a custom build step in order to automatically invoke flex and then compile the generated file. I taught a compilers course last summer and we have instructions on how to get flex and a sample project file available on the archived course website. You should look under the announcement labeled "Visual Studio Starter Files for PP1."
Hope this helps!
Using Win flex-bison with visual studio is quite easier and straightforward. You can find it at Win Flex-Bison.

Compile lighttpd in Visual Studio 2005

I have a platform independent source code that can run on Windows and UNIX platforms. To compile the source on Windows, there is support for cygwin. But I want to compile it with Visual Studio 2005. How will I do it? What are the project settings required to be done on Visual studio and what about linking options? Will I be able to get any idea from successfully compiled source on cygwin? BTW, source code is in C language. Please someone help me on this.
Thanks in advance!
IMHO you're out of luck. If this project depends on cygwin, you most probably can't compile it with reasonable effort in vs.
Basically (for simple libraries) you should be fine by dumping all the .c and .h files into a visual studio project.
Most of the time you can just drop it to your own sources. If you want to create a library choose create new project -> new library, put all the sourcefiles in there and the library will automatically be linked with your main program.

Usage of dlib library in Visual Studio 2010

I would like to ask for help in using dlib for my little thesis project. Specifically, I need to use the BOBYQA optimisation routine.
I am writing the project in MS Visual Studio 2010 Express in C language. I have zero experience in using libraries such as dlib and I don't have any idea what a makefile is and how to write one.
I have found a little hint here but due to my lack of experience in the matter, I just can't figure out how to compile and make use of dlib in my code.
I would like to ask for a step by step instruction how to incorporate dlib into my code, i.e.:
where exactly should I extract the dlib folder from the zip file?
should I add some files to the Visual Studio project?
are there any other problems I am not yet aware of?
I would also be very grateful for a simple example code of usage (my function to be optimised has 6 parameters).
If you are using visual studio then you don't have to use makefiles. You can create your project just like you normally would. Then to use dlib all you have to do is add dlib/all/source.cpp to your project and add the folder containing the dlib folder into your include search path. If you only use BOBYQA then you don't even have to add dlib/all/source.cpp.
If this is your first time using visual studio and you are getting hung up on how to create the project then I would suggest using CMake. It's very easy to use and it will setup an appropriate visual studio project for you automatically. Moreover, there is an example application which comes with dlib examples/optimization_ex.cpp which shows how to call BOBYQA and this example can be built using cmake with the following commands:
cd examples
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
Then you should find a visual studio project inside the build folder all setup and ready to go. It will be setup to build all the dlib examples. If you edit the CMakeLists.txt file in the examples folders you can remove examples you aren't interested in.
I tried two methods (1) and (2) under but it wasn't the intention of Dlib. The method (3) looks like working at this moment.
There is an example in Visual Studio 2013 at How to setup Dlib with Visual Studio 2013 without CMake?.
The difference in 2010 version, you have to use Property -> Configuration Properties -> (1) VC++ Directories or (2) C/C++ -> General
Regarding the source.cpp file, I just added on Source Files.
The method that I successfully applied is (so far)
(3) #include "dlib/image_processing/frontal_face_detector.h"
The dlib folder should be located in current source directory (Where does Visual Studio look for C++ header files? and https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/36k2cdd4(v=VS.100).aspx for details)
