[zeromq-dev] VS2013, Targets Can't Find libzmq.lib When Linking

[Pieter Hintjens]

Scott,

After some experimentation I've reproduced the problem. The libzmq
folder must be called "libzmq" and not e.g. "libzmq-stable". If you
use a different name, things will break. This is also the case when
you want to build multiple products, e.g. czmq, libzmq, libsodium
together. They need to use their repository names for the folders, or
they cannot find each other.
