For Windows, please build ImageMagick as a peer in $(ABI_ROOT)/../ImageMagick/

ImageMagick.lib will need to be generated for the Win32 plug-in
build of ImageMagick to work.

To create ImageMagick.lib you will need MC Visual C++ Version 6.0 or better
(with newer versions likely to require work or MSVC++ version 7 (aka .Net))
Check out www.imagemagick.org and get source code for ImageMagick.

Presently tested with Image Magick 5.5.8 beta for Windows (11/1/03)
* Either patch the source nt_base.c (search for DllMain) to add
  && !defined(_LIB) to the #ifdef surrounding it or change the
  config option ProvideDllMain to no, i.e. comment out the
  line that has #define ProvideDllMain
  - Failure to do this will result in a link error as AbiMagick also
  defines a DllMain (alternately you may comment out the 
  ABI_PLUGIN_DECLARE("ImageMagick") line in abimagick)
* To prevent an assert on startup, apply the patch for configure
  located at the bottom of this document.
* To allow loading of slightly invalid BMP files (ones whose header
  has an invalid filesize) apply the patch at the bottom.  Note: 
  this could lead to problems if the file is corrupt in other ways.

Follow steps to build ImageMagick Multithreaded static libraries for DLL CRT
-Build Configure
-Run Configure selecting Static Multithreaded DLL library
-Load VisualStaticMTDLL.dsw workspace
-Set active configuration to 'All Release' or 'All Debug'
-Do a 'Clean' from the build menu
-build

In the lib directory (ImageMagick/VisualMagick/lib/) you will need to run:
  for Release builds:
		lib /OUT:ImageMagick_RL.lib CORE_RL*.lib
  for Debug builds:
		lib /OUT:ImageMagick_DB.lib CORE_DB*.lib

The following include directories need to be in the compiler's
INCLUDE path (the Makefile sets these for Windows):
		magick/*.h
		magick++/lib/magic++.h
		magick++/lib/magic++/*.h
		wand/*.h
                    
Once the library (ImageMagick_??.lib) has been created, the
plugin should build, assuming ImageMagick directory is a peer.
