where can I get the corresponding SDK for VLC

[china91888]

Hi:

can I use the official vlc version to develop a customized media player?

for example, I download vlc-2.0.3-win32.exe, but where can I get its' corresponding SDK?

or I must to compile it from source?

thanks

I found the old version, such as 1.19/1.18, no sdk directory found after installation.

{vlc_install_folder}\sdk ?

or what do you mean by "sdk"?

[china91888]

yes.

which include the "lib" and "include" used for compiling.

the newer version has the {vlc_install_folder}\sdk but the older version hasn't

then don't know, sorry. I didn't work with such old versions...

Firstly, where to download the files
1.all versions are listed here:
http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/
2.click into a subdirectory, you will see:
../
macos/
win32/ ----------------------------------------DLLs and a runnable vlc executive file are under this subdirectory
vlc-X.X.X.tar.XX ------------------------------- source code is under this subdirectory
vlc-X.X.X.tar.XX.asc
vlc-X.X.X.tar.XX.md5
vlc-X.X.X.tar.XX.sha1
vlc-X.X.X.tar.XX.sha256

Secondly, note that they don't offer lib files, you should generate them on your own.
however there's a tutorial available: http://wiki.videolan.org/GenerateLibFromDll

Hope these helpful..
