Larry,

Thanks for your quick reply!

I installed the latest version of Cygwin, and almost
all packages which includes 'binutils' package. I
checked and found 'ld' in the path: (1)
cygwin\bin\ld.exe (678 kb), and (2)
cygwin\usr\i686-pc-cygwin\bin\ld.exe (1 kb). Is this
normal?

I did a quick search on the list and couldn't find
exact answer to my question.

Do you have any more thoughts? Thanks!

Best,
Frank

(BTW, I installed Cygwin in this folder:
D:\software\cygwin)

Error message:
--------------------------------------------
/bin/sh ./libtool --mode=link g++ QN_libc.o ... -o
libquicknet3.a
cygpath: can't convert empty path

g++ QN_libc.o ... -o libquicknet3.a.exe
