You should look at something more current, and from the GNU camp. https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/ld/WIN32.html same info as https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/4/html/Using_ld_the_GNU_Linker/win32.html As I repeat so many times, those dllimport/dllexport hacks are microsoft-compiler-specific, and mingw/cywgin gcc does not need them. _______________________________________________ Freetype-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freetype-devel
