It's good that it works for you now. But please note that it is usually not possible to mix different C++ compilers to build the lib and your app. (project), because of different name mangling in C++. Although MinGW/MSYS also uses gcc, I recommend to compile the FLTK libs and your app with exactly the same compiler versions and build tools - otherwise you might get subtle bugs that are difficult to find (if you can link the app at all). But maybe Code::Blocks uses an installed MinGW gcc/g++ compiler anyway ? > Where is my link line, and how can I put my lib before my project? Sorry, I can't help you with this, but I saw someone else just answered this question.
