I am building a 3rd party project which is built on LZMA on Windows 10 using Visual Studio 2015. One of the source file needs to include lzma.h: #include <lzma.h>
And I guess the project will link LZMA library after passing compilation. To this end, I download the LZMA SDK lzma1805.7z from https://www.7-zip.org/sdk.html in order to build LZMA myself. But after reading all docs and tried many times, I still cannot figure out how to build LZMA. I am expecting to generate a library file named, say, lzma.lib (possibly together with lzma.dll) and a folder containing header files. But I don't know how to make it. Futhermore, to my frustration, there is no lzma.h at all in the package. The progress I have made so far is that I can build a VS project in lzma1805\C\Util\LzmaLib\LzmaLib.dsw which produces LZMA.lib and LzmaLib.dll and lzma1805\CPP\7zip\Bundles\Alone7z\Alone.vcxproj which generates Alone.exe about which I have no idea what it is. So, what on earth is the LZMA library that another 3rd party project links to and where is the lzma.h?

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
for using lzma only
list(APPEND LZMASOURCES
lzma/C/lzmaEnc.c
lzma/C/lzmaDec.c
lzma/C/lzmalib.c
lzma/C/LzFind.c
lzma/C/LzFindMt.c
lzma/C/Alloc.c
lzma/C/Threads.c)

OK, let me put this way: where is the open source publicly downloadable for the lzma package that is installed when I type in ubuntu sudo apt-get install liblzma-dev
Since it seems that no one uses Windows+VS, I will manually create a VS project and build it myself.

maybe "xz utils" ?

use #include "lzma/C/LzmaLib.h"
