In case you got lost in my long rant. Greg suggested looking at ldd and ldd showed the culprit. I suspect it might just be a windows issue, possibly even mingw64 cmake issue. The issue is the file names changed in my cmake builds between 3.10.0 to 3.10.1 So my 3.10.0 build had these files (and all versions I have built, including GEOS 3.6 have had these names). The fact they never changed made me happy (and I kept my mouth shut at the beauty of this bug). c-api => libgeos_c.dll c++ api -> libgeos.dll and from 3.10.1 forward, my files look like yuck: c-api => libgeos_c-1.dll c++ api -> libgeos-3.10.1.dll One can rightfully argue, that the old 3.10.0 behavior was a bug (I call it feature or a beautiful bug :) ) And that 3.10.1 is the proper way to version since the c++ abi is unstable it should be changing in each micro-release. I'm just a bit irritated this changed happened in a micro-release. Not a huge deal.
