Yeah, probably not MinGW; from Earnie Boyd in 2002 http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-07/msg02188.html > John Platts wrote: >> >> Why do mingw32 users continue to use a runtime library dependent of >> MSVCRT.DLL? > > Because that's what MinGW is. So, I guess there's nothing else for a MinGW user to gain from RUNTIME_LIBS=static. I suspect there's little for any Windows developer to gain unless the application has some dependency on a specific ("71" or "8" digits appended) version of MSVCRT. e -- Doug Currie Londonderry, NH, USA ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
