How to add a library in C++?

问题:

Iam new to C++ and I am trying to add NLopt library to C++ using VS 2013. NLopt is a non-linear optimization library (http://ab-initio.mit.edu/wiki/index.php/NLopt_C-plus-plus_Reference#Compiling_and_linking_your_program_to_NLopt). NLopt has a DLL file and .h file and I cannot figure out a way to get them work. I appreciate if anyone can give me a quick guide on how to import this library.

Thank you in advance.

Here's what you'd want to go through: DLLs in Visual C++ - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/1ez7dh12.aspx

More specifically, gauging from your question you are probably looking for Implicit Linking - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/d14wsce5.aspx

And if all of that sounds confusing to you, you might go through this walk-through first: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/vstudio/ms235636.aspx
