I guess the simply setting ZMQ_EXPORT to the empty string, as suggested below, will not solve the build issues with static libraries for mingw?

Right now, it's a blocker for the rzmq windows package. http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/rzmq/index.html -Whit On Tue, Dec 4, 2012 at 9:36 AM, Stefan Radomski <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Hi again, we are compiling static binaries of zeromq and link them into our executables. On windows, that means that I always open up zmq.h and zmq_utils.h to edit the part with regard to DSO symbol visibility as follows: #ifndef ZMQ_STATIC #if defined _WIN32 # if defined DLL_EXPORT # define ZMQ_EXPORT __declspec(dllexport) # else # define ZMQ_EXPORT __declspec(dllimport) # endif #else # if defined __SUNPRO_C || defined __SUNPRO_CC # define ZMQ_EXPORT __global # elif (defined __GNUC__ && __GNUC__ >= 4) || defined __INTEL_COMPILER # define ZMQ_EXPORT __attribute__ ((visibility("default"))) # else # define ZMQ_EXPORT # endif #endif #else #define ZMQ_EXPORT #endif then adapt the build type in the Visual Studio project and pass ZMQ_STATIC as a preprocessor flag. The issue popped up on this list earlier as well [1][2]. The question is, whether you'd want the ZMQ_STATIC handling contributed to the master branch or is there another supported approach I missed? I cannot see how to make a test-case for this one though.
