I've got the cygnus distribution, ecgs-1.00, coolview, and the X11R6.3 (from Orlando da Silva). The binary X programs run fine, but my own program doesn't. I get 2 possible behaviours: - When linking with the dynamic link libraries from X11, a dialog box coming up, saying that it can't find the ll dynamic link library in my path (and indeed, I don't have any ll.dll anywhere) - When linking with the static libraries (/usr/X11R6.2/lib/static) an exception crash with the following dump: --- Since I only distributed the static libraries with the B18 version of the X11R6.3 libs, it appears that you are NOT linking with the egcs-1.00 version of these libraries. Please take a look at: http://dao.gsfc.nasa.gov/software/grads/win32/X11R6.3 and download the egcs-1.00 built X11R6.3 libraries. There is an incompatibility between B18 and egcs-1.00 built libraries - you cannot link egcs compiled code with B18 built libraries, either static or dynamic linking won't work (although ld runs to completion without even a warning). -- Arlindo da Silva dasilva AT alum DOT mit DOT edu - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
