 4.Extract it somewhere and copy its location and edit it in DeepNestPort-master\Minkowski\compile.bat file like so :-
	  cl /Ox -I "D:\boost\boost_1_76_0" /LD minkowski.cc

 5.Go to Start->All Programs->(Scroll down to see Visual Studio 2022 folder)->Tools->Dev. Command Prompt
   Do cd to the place where DeepNestPort-master is location(u might have to do 'cd /d <location>' instead of 
   normal 'cd' command to change the drive)
	  enter 'compile.bat' in command prompt and it will automatically generate a 'minkowski.dll' file for you.

Steps to generate 'DeepNestPort.exe':

	1. Open vs2022 and open project in explorer(select file 'DeepNestPort.sln').
	2. In visual studio press Build->Build solution. This will take 10-20 seconds

To run software just copy minkowski.dll to the folder where u have exe, and u will have this project running.
