How to compile the IJG JPEG library (libjpeg) for Visual Studio 2010

This procedure should also work for Visual Studio 2012 and later.

• Go to http://www.ijg.org/ and download the latest version of the JPEG library. As of 2012-11-23, that is version 8d, at http://www.ijg.org/files/jpegsr8d.zip

• Unzip the package.

• Open a Visual Studio Command Prompt:

  • Type “prompt” in Windows 7 Start, or go to Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 / Visual Studio Tools.

• In the command prompt, CD to the root of the uncompressed library directory.

• Create Visual Studio project files:

  > nmake -f makefile.vc setup-v10

• Close the command prompt

• Open the jpeg.sln file from Windows Explorer.

• Build any desired version by adjusting the property pages for the project:

  • DLL or static lib: General / Configuration Type
  • Set runtime to match the rest of yor project: C/C++ / Code Generation
  • Set up x64 build: Configuration Manager / Active Solution Platform / New

• To use the library:

  • Add the root folder of the library to the include search path.
  • Add the appropriate folder with a compiled binary to the lib path. For instance, c:\jpeg-8d\x64\Release
