Hi Paul,
This seems to come up quite often for the Windows users. Would linking
against a static version of dependencies like png, jpeg, zlib, etc be a
helpful solution?
Not sure how the executable size would increase in that case... But
yeah, they're pretty much required dependencies if you want to do
anything useful, so I'd agree that it could be helpful.
Though I think when developing on Windows you need to be able to
diagnose and fix DLL search path and dependency problems, because
they'll bite you sooner or later. I'm not trying to imply that OSG
should be a teaching aid in Windows programming and troubleshooting, but
we should consider how much time we spend on making things easier for
newbies which they'll have to learn anyways.
J-S
