Sorry Greg, I can't help with this one - I don't use the MS compiler tools. > 2) Under unix, the fltk libs are named with underbars, > eg. fltk_images.lib > whereas under windows (via fltk.sln) the libs are > eg. fltkimages.lib > (without the underbar separator). > > Is this the standard naming convention, or will > underbars be used for all? My preference is for the underbar style, to make things consistent. Indeed the mingw builds (which are "pretending" to be *nix, of course) do build with the underbar names on winXX. Mind you, the winXX DLL and libs are not interchangeable between toolchains, so maybe having the names different is an intended separation? > 3) fltk_xutf8 -- there used to be a lib by this name > (old utf8 patches?) > but I don't see it in the fltk-1.3.x stream lately. > > I take this has gone the way of the dodo, in favor > of the utf8 > routines getting compiled into fltk, is that correct? > > Or is there ever a reason we'd see the utf8 stuff > show up as a > separate lib, and if so, under what circumstances > would an app need it? I believe the utf8 stuff is now merged into the main fltk lib, so there is no separate lib for it anymore.
