I'm not a Visual C++ user, but AFAICT the key is to compile the FLTK library and your application with the *same* setup. I'm not sure what FLTK's default is now, but if you change your app's setup, change FLTK's setup before compiling it (FLTK) as well. This should help. Hint: If you get the message that it *might* help to use this "IGNORE-LIB" (or whatever it's called), don't trust it - compile FLTK with the same ooption as your app, and this should go away. As for the question which one you need to distribute software w/o distributing DLL's I don't know whether this matters at all, as long as you don't use any specific runtime libs that are only distributed with VC2008 or a specific SDK (and that are said by MS to be "redistributable"). Or so... Albrecht _______________________________________________ fltk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.easysw.com/mailman/listinfo/fltk
