  I can't launch flghtgear when openscenegraph is compiled in release there is 
a bug with the linking  to zlib.dll

   

  I dont understand why

   

  Error is 

   

  'Ordinal 55 not found on zlib.dll'

   

  it seems to be a linking problem with zlib.dll

   

  Its only when i compil openscenegraph on other version than debug (release 
ect...)

   

  Help !

I also had zlib.dll problems. These went away when I re-ordered my PATH 
environment to ensure that the version of zlib.dll that I wanted was nearer the 
top. Many programs install their own version of zlib.

Depends.exe is the tool you need to find out which dll´´s fgfs (or any other 
progarm) will actually load at run-time. http://www.dependencywalker.com/ (it

It only happens in release mode because the debug build link to zlibd.lib/dll 
and it is most likely that the only one in the system is the one located in the 
3rdparty directory. 
zlib.dll and other Open Source libraries are often used even by commercial 
products and there should be one with a different version elsewhere, possibly 
in c:\windows\system32

OpenSceneGraph (source or SVN version) has its own set of third party files. In 
the OpenSceneGraph/3rdpart/bin directory there is both zlib1.dll and 
zlib1d.dll, and in the 3rdparty/lib directory are the equivalent .lib files.

On my system I have used the OPenSceneGraph 3rdparty files as the basis for my 
FlightGear build.

Also be aware that zlib.lib is probably not the one you need, for dll builds 
you should use zlib1. I have copied zlib.lib into my 3rd party directory as 
both zlib1.lib and zlib.lib for this reason. (see 
http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt).
