I doubt this can be made to work easily, though I'll come back to that. Note that the order and nature of the libs called seldom (if ever) changes on WinXX machines, they are all pretty much the same, so it may be easiest just to get a list of the required libs in Msys one time then code those into your IDE directly. They will not change anyway, so that should be fine, and once the IDE is set up, you will not have to adjust things again... Actually making the fltk-config script run in a DOS shell is not really feasible, but you can create a DOS .bat file that calls the mingw sh.exe and have that invoke fltk-config via the "-c" option to sh... Though far that to work, you'd need to have sh.exe installed in the path, or in the same "well known location" on every machine. You would have to create something like: ------------ REM pseudo DOS batch script to get LDFLAGS d:\path\to\mingw\sh.exe -c "d:\path\to\fltk-config --ldstaticflags" REM end of DOS batch file ------------ ... and so on... I've used this approach before (though not with fltk-config) to run other Msys/mingw tools in a "DOS" shell and it works, but it does seem a bit clunky. _______________________________________________ fltk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.easysw.com/mailman/listinfo/fltk
