MP3 compiling problem (missing GTK library)

Hi to all.
I have a problem with compiling lame source code 3.98-2.
After Build solution of "lame_vc6.dsw" there are missing libraries. In projekt is wrote to download GTK+, GLib and win_iconv20090213    from site: "http://www.gtk.org/download-windows.html". I download them, but I dont know where it save in LAME projekt folder.

Is it normal to make project where are missing libraries?

pls help with it
Thanks a lot

Imho it's better to compile lame_vc8.sln or even vc_solution\vc9_lame.sln.

I try it but it still doesnt work. There are missing many *.h files.
If I put the requested header file to solution from GTK+ library => every time compiler find other and other missing header file.
After that I copied whole folder to project but it doesn't do nothing. And missing header files are still there.

it must by simply solution for this, 
but why is impossible to compile project whitout errors?

If author gave created LAME project on lame website IT must work propely without adding other libraries, OR NOT?

If you downloaded and unzipped the GTK SDK on your hard disk, you will have to make Visual Studio aware of its existence. You either add paths to LIB and INCLUDE system environment variables, or add those in your VS project and solution paths.

Do you even need the mp3x frame analyzer? If not, then simply don't try to build that project. The lame encoder program compiles perfectly fine without the Gimp Toolkit SDK.

No. Say you wanted to compile a DirectX program on your machine. In this case, you would have to install the MS DirectX SDK first too.

1. Is there a difference between directX and directX SDK?
DirectX SDK (2009aug) is 533MB
So is it nessesary instal DirectX SDK application if I have clasic DirectX graphic application on system?

2. What is Frame analyser? What is is good for?

thanks for yours answers

You need the SDK (Software Development Kit) only to build your own programs using  DirectX.
