Could you post a small program, preferably the smallest one possible, that fails in this way? And also give the exact compilation and linking commands that you used. As to compiling libarchive-2.5.5, it seems impossible to compile it, even after extensive patching of the MS-Windows specific header files. Libarchive-2.4.12-1 should compile as it is, i.e. unpack libarchive-2.4.12-1-src.zip, and at a Cygwin bash prompt in the directory libarchive-2.4.12, type: "./config.status" (in order to recreate the .deps subdirectories) and then: "make"; see also http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/compile.html Kees Zeelenberg ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ GnuWin32-Users mailing list GnuWin32-Users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gnuwin32-users
