Hello Lenard, have you had a chance to document that mingw compilation step you talked about for non standard C library routines? here's the mingw wiki page: http://www.pygame.org/wiki/MingW Cheers, On 7/13/07, Lenard Lindstrom <len-l@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:
I compile Pygame with MinGW 3.4.5 . To get MinGW to link to msvcr71 (well mostly) I replace "-lmsvcrt" with "-lmsvcr71" on line 54 of the MinGW\lib\gcc\mingw32\3.4.5\specs file. This makes MinGW default to use msvcr17.dll though, so has to be changed back for msvcrt.dll . There is another trick I use to catch non-standard C library routines that start with an underline in VC but not in Unix. I will look at including this information on the Pygame wiki. -- Lenard Lindstrom <len-l@xxxxxxxxx>
