compressed files we were not passing the full wide char path to zlib, so not
all file names worked. Now we use gzopen_w available in new zlib versions.
Patch by Tamito Kajiyama, I added an extra check for the zlib version so it
keeps compiling with older versions for now.
For platform maintainers:
Part of this commit are zlib 1.2.8 libraries for windows 32 bit. We still
need update libraries for windows 64 bit and mingw. There's a readme.txt
and build.bat included with instructions on how to build.

Get rid of BLI_splitdirstring, replace with calls to BLI_split_dirfile, BLI_split_dir_part and BLI_split_file_part as appropriate.
now blenlib/BLI doesn't depend on any blenkern/BKE functions,
there are still some bad level includes but these are only to access G.background and the blender version define.

Other builds may also work but due to the constantly changing nature of the compiler this cannot be guaranteed. I often had to change compilers while building the libraries and this one is the one that did the job for most of them.
This first support is experimental and considered "advanced". To enable pass -DWITH_MINGW64 during cmake configuration. Also make sure to extract the compiler on C:/MinGW and that MinGW/bin is in your path. To build check out lib/mingw64.
Initially the support is lacking until I get every library compiled correctly. For now you should disable WITH_CYCLES(sorry, I know some people are dying to do benchmarks, but still a few libs to go), WITH_IMAGE_OPENEXR, WITH_OPENCOLLADA, WITH_LIBMV and WITH_CODEC_FFMPEG(links but hangs on startup).
Still the tools are working, the memory limit is increased and due to the experimental nature of the setup, full optimization with SSE2 is available, which makes the build quite fast. Also the compiler and especially, the linker are way faster than regular MinGW.
The wiki docs have also updated. Happy testing!
If we open file for write, we create a new file and close it. Therefore we have existing path for GetShortPathName.
Strangely zlib fails on gzclose if file descriptors are used.
Not all file formats/calls are supported yet. It will be expended.
Please from now on use BLI_fopen, BLI_* for file manipulations.
For non-windows systems BLI_fopen just calls fopen.
For Windows, the utf-8 string is translated to utf-16 string in order to call UTF version of the function.
- Crash was caused by recursively copying directory into itself, fixed
by switching from opendir() to scandir().
- Also do not try to unpack images which doesn't have name.
which resolves some possible issues with operating files with quotes and backslashes.
Also this might resolve (or at least help) resolving compilation error on GNU Hurd platform
which will help a lot maintaining Blender for Debian.
- spelling - turns out we had tessellation spelt wrong all over.
- use \directive for doxy (not @directive)
- remove BLI_sparsemap.h - was from bmesh merge IIRC but entire file commented and not used.
