zlib.dll version 1.2.5

[JJoe]

Attached zip contains a zlib.dll that was built by Gilles Vollant from the current zlib 1.2.5 sources. The dll was originally named zlibwapi.dll. It can replace the zlib.dll built by Gilles Vollant from the zlib 1.1.x sources that is currently used by the Proxomitron.

Question...
I downloaded the zip/folder "zlib125dll.zip" from - http://www.winimage.com/zLibDll/index.html - which contains several folders. Long story short, should I use the dll32 or dllx64 version of zlibwapi.dll (renaming to zlib.dll of course)? I'm on Win7x64 and x64 cpu, but Proxomitron is 32-bit based... so I didn't even know if both would work, or one would fail?

One other question... I'm not supposed to build/compile anything from that .zip am I? Or should I copy any of those .lib files to the Proxomitron install directory as well?

Thanks for your help.

Welcome,

You only need zlibwapi.dll from the dll32 folder.
No other files are needed.
No need to build, compile, etc.
