Hello,
Out of curiosity, I tried to use my locally Msys/mingw compiled
Aspell-0.60.4 with MSVC2005. I just had to copy libaspell.a to
aspell.lib and the scons test said "yes" for aspell (I verified that the
test program compiled and linked).
But I have linking errors with lyx (see below). It's maybe just a matter
of making sure that Aspell is compiled statically against mingw10.dll,
libstdc++, etc. But I think our best bet is to use Peter version which
seems to compile fine with MSVC2005. Could you post this somewhere Peter
(scons wiki?).
Please correct me if I am wrong, but AFAIK this will not work, because
Aspell is written in C++. g++ is not binary compatible to MSVC, but plain C
(gcc) can be made binary compatible.
That's what I thought also but Angus explained me that gcc C++ ABI is
compatible with microsoft if you use static linking. It's Gcc dll
handling that is non compatible with MSVC.
Abdel.
