Compile NGINX with Visual Studio

Question

I have 2 questions regarding NGINX:

• Is there anyone who has already compiled NGINX with Visual Studio? I want to create a VS9 project to compile NGINX.

• This is my real need, is there a way to compile NGINX as a Lib or DLL?

Answer 1

I just finished a Visual Studio 2010 project for nginx. The process was not entirely direct, so I will try to tell in detail about everything that I learned. This is from a few hours to several days, depending on your experience.

1: nginx . nginx, .c .h, Visual Studio. . ( . .)
