just a warning.

and in regards to mysql it is sometimes hard to get to work with mingw/cygwin (not impossible though) my guess is that the import library is broken.

put this in a bat file

call it reimp.bat

@echo off
for %%A in ("%1") do pexports %%A > tmp.def
for %%A in ("%1") do dlltool --dllname %%A --def tmp.def --output-lib lib%%A.a

make sure you have pexports.exe from mingw now run it in a windows prompt in the directory where libmysql.dll is like this reimp libmysql.dll

now you have a libmysql.a in the same dir move it to mingw/lib and try compiling again.

ofc remove the old import library and make sure you actually link against your new one.

I have read that, but I don't use MinGW, only CYGWIN.
My code must be 100% compatible with linux.

And I use C::B because I don't want developp by remote on my linux server.

oBFusCATed:
Hm, why do you think I've said something about MinGW?
The tips I've gave you apply for all compilers out there...

Hirogens:
Yes sorry,

But i'm found many help topic on C::B/MinGW but not many on C::B/Cygwin .. :cry:


I have nothing against MinGW, but not quite compatible.
and of course, your help was on all compilers

B.Regards

np m8 :)

its pretty general stuff so obfuscated is right to making an import library for gcc using mingw tools will work just as well for cygwin since both use gcc :)

i use it all the time to get import libraries from stuff i cannot build on mingw like apache.
