title: Cannot install sphinxbase (offline voice recognizer) on Windows
body: <p>I am trying to develop an offline voice recognizer on android. After a few searching I found CMU Sphinx is used for this purpose.</p>
  
  <p>I am trying to install it on Windows,
  Here are the instructions that are quoted from its own web page: </p>
  
  <pre><code>  Windows
  
    In MS Windows (TM), under MS Visual Studio 2008 (or newer - we test with Visual C++ 2008 Express):
  
       -load sphinxbase.sln located in sphinxbase directory
       -compile all the projects in SphinxBase (from sphinxbase.sln)
       -load pocketsphinx.sln in pocketsphinx directory
       -compile all the projects in PocketSphinx
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The problem is, there is no <code>sphinxbase.sln</code> anywhere! Am I understanding it wrong? Should I not see a file named <code>sphinxbase.sln</code> and execute it? Or what should I do? What are the steps?</p>
  
  <p>This question may help other people who have also problem with installing Sphinx.</p>
