Compiling FFTW 3.3.4 With Visual Studio 2013

Has anyone managed to compile the latest release of FFTW 3.3.4 using the Visual C++ compiler? I'm aware that the project maintainers offer pre-compiled dll's that were built with MinGW, but I'm looking to compile them myself.

So far, I've downloaded the source (of course), and I am trying to use one of the pre-made VS solutions that was reported to work for Visual Studio 2010 and FFTW 3.3, but when I'm building, I'm getting a few "unresolved external" errors like the following:

Error   1259    error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _fftwf_mkprinter_str referenced in function _fftwf_export_wisdom_to_string    C:\Users\bryan\Downloads\fftw-3.3.4\fftw-3.3.4\fftw-3.3-libs\libfftwf-3.3\export-wisdom-to-string.obj   libfftwf-3.3

I know this is a bit of a stretch, but has anyone built FFTW 3.3.4 using Visual Studion 2013?

For me, it was missing Windows7.1SDK. Then I tried to install that but realised that first I have to remove Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x86) and (x64), than install the SDK and then install again the packages. No it says: C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\Platforms\x64\Microsoft.Cpp.x64.targets(146,5): error MSB6006: "CL.exe" exited with code -1073741515. I heard that it is not a must to install the SDK but it is possible to change the platform toolset to Visual Studio 2010 (v100). - DanielTuzes

I have had the same problem. Take a look on http://wiki.panotools.org/Hugin_SDK_%28MSVC_2013%29 There is explained how you can build libfftw-3.3 In the same way you can build libfftwf-3.3

To build bench and benchf you have to remove '....\libbench2\aligned-main.c' That is explained here (commentar 6) Compiling FFTW source in Visual studio
