** Prerequisites **

1. Install Microsoft Visual Studio (I installed VS 2010 Express – free)
2. Install cmake
3. Install bison (make sure no spaces in path)

** Build Instructions **

cd bld
cmake ..
cmake --build . --config relwithdebinfo --target package

C:\Windows\system32>cd C:\mysql\mysql-5.7.1

C:\mysql\mysql-5.7.1>mkdir bld

C:\mysql\mysql-5.7.1>cd bld

C:\mysql\mysql-5.7.1\bld>cmake ..
