Hi,
After reading the FAQ, it seems the best (if not the only) way of
converting some .lib files to .a files was to use obj2coff (I'm trying to
eventually convert the directx lib's to a's).
I'm using o2c version 1.0 from o2cv10.arj.
I'm trying to convert cdx.lib to a .a file, for use in djgpp. I
enter:
> o2c -C cdx.lib
But all that is outputted is:
> O2C - version 1.0

Yet it does not create any .a file :(
It does the same for another .lib files.
I'm quite sure I've got a path pointing to go32-v2.exe etc.
What am I doing wrong? Surely someone else must have used it to convert
.lib to .a. Also, if anyone has another way of converting a .lib to a .a
(that they *know* works) (yes I know it's hard and won't work for all libs
;) ) then feel free to reply too :)
Thanks,
Matt
