RE: newbi: Problems to Link Gtk on Windows98

[Cameron Davidson csiro au]

Mingw works for me with precompiled 2.0 package,
but I also use a Cygwin shell and gnu-make.

Curiously, my 'pkg-config --libs gtk+-win32-2.0' gives
a more gcc-like output:
... -lgtk-win32-2.0 -lgdk-win32-2.0 ... etc.
which links through the dlls.
I don't think it uses the *.lib files. Are you trying to link statically?
Are you sure you haven't mixed up --mscv-syntax?

Cameron.

The docs I read said that in order to use the precompiled gtk from
Lillqvist's site you
must use Microsoft's Visual C++, and that certainly worked for me.
