2024-02-21	Windows: Major update to Windows build instructions.	Lasse Collin	1	-0/+2

2024-02-21	Windows: Update windows/README-Windows.txt.	Lasse Collin	1	-63/+41
	It's for binary packages built with windows/build.bash.
2024-02-14	Change most public domain parts to 0BSD.	Lasse Collin	1	-5/+6
	Translations and doc/xz-file-format.txt and doc/lzma-file-format.txt were not touched. COPYING.0BSD was added.
2024-01-19	Docs: Update website URLs.	Jia Tan	1	-1/+2

2023-09-24	Windows: Update the version requirement comments from Win95 to W2k.	Lasse Collin	1	-6/+4

2022-11-30	Change the bug report address.	Lasse Collin	1	-1/+1
	It forwards to me and Jia Tan. Also update the IRC reference in README as #tukaani was moved to Libera Chat long ago.
2017-04-19	Update the home page URLs to HTTPS.	Lasse Collin	1	-1/+1

2014-12-20	Windows: Update the build script and README-Windows.txt.	Lasse Collin	1	-14/+16
	The 32-bit build is now for i686 or newer because the prebuilt MinGW-w64 toolchains include i686 code in the executables even if one uses -march=i486. The build script builds 32-bit SSE2 enabled version too. Run-time detection of SSE2 support would be nice (on any OS) but it's not implemented in XZ Utils yet.
2013-09-17	Add native threading support on Windows.	Lasse Collin	1	-1/+1
	Now liblzma only uses "mythread" functions and types which are defined in mythread.h matching the desired threading method. Before Windows Vista, there is no direct equivalent to pthread condition variables. Since this package doesn't use pthread_cond_broadcast(), pre-Vista threading can still be kept quite simple. The pre-Vista code doesn't use anything that wasn't already available in Windows 95, so the binaries should run even on Windows 95 if someone happens to care.
2012-04-29	Windows: Update notes about static linking with MSVC.	Lasse Collin	1	-4/+9

2010-10-09	Windows: Put some license info into README-Windows.txt.	Lasse Collin	1	-4/+4

2010-01-31	Revise the Windows build files.	Lasse Collin	1	-0/+115
	The old Makefile + config.h was deleted, because it becomes outdated too easily and building with the Autotools based build system works fine even on Windows. windows/build.sh hasn't got much testing, but it should work to build 32-bit x86 and x86-64 versions of XZ Utils using MSYS, MinGW or MinGW-w32, and MinGW-w64. windows/INSTALL-Windows.txt describes what packages are needed and how to install them. windows/README-Windows.txt is a readme file for the binary package that build.sh hopefully builds. There are no instructions about using Autotools for now, so those using a git snapshot may want to run "autoreconf -fi && ./configure && make mydist" on a UN*X box and then copy the resulting .tar.gz to a Windows.
