Heh, compiling libraries on Windows. Although I don't have an answer to your question, I do know that I've only ever had trouble trying to compile anything other than my own source files on Windows.
This is especially frustrating when I just want to compile a library as static rather than dynamic (to get rid of Yet Another DLL File), and end up with scores of linker errors... The only library I've ever managed to compile properly on Windows is zlib... It probably has to do with the fact that Visual Studio is the defacto standard on Windows, and because Mingw is so fscking complicated to set up (surprise! The make bundled with it is obsolete!) I wish there was an easy way to get a proper GCC installation working without having to make sacrifices to the Technoromicon and Bithulhu... ------Original Message------ From: James Paige Sender: [email protected] To: [email protected] ReplyTo: [email protected] Subject: [Ohrrpgce] compiling SDL_mixer Sent: Oct 19, 2009 5:10 PM How do you compile SDL_mixer on Windows? I was trying using MinGW and Msys, and it is infuriatingly frustrating. One problem after another. Is MinGW even the right tool for this job? --- James Paige _______________________________________________ Ohrrpgce mailing list [email protected] http://lists.motherhamster.org/listinfo.cgi/ohrrpgce-motherhamster.org -- Mike Caron _______________________________________________ Ohrrpgce mailing list [email protected] http://lists.motherhamster.org/listinfo.cgi/ohrrpgce-motherhamster.org
