Here is how I put things together. The goal is to have pthread available as system library on Microsoft Windows so I can just #include to my source code to use its functions.

The main issue is that the compiler/linker can find all parts of the library which are the header file pthread.h, the linkable library pthread.lib and its executable part pthread.dll. It will look at predefined directories. For the header file it will look at the environment variable INCLUDE or will use settings in environment variable CL. INCLUDE is only used by the buildsystem nmake. Builds with Visual Studio does ignore it. Settings in CL is used by the compiler so it works on both buildsystems and we will use that. For pthread.lib the compiler looks at the environment variable LIB and the executable program searches for the needed pthread.dll using the Path environment variable.

I use the PowerShell. First we have to download and install pthreads4w from GitHub. It uses cmake and can only be compiled with nmake so we have to use the Generator 'NMake Makefiles'.
