[Dev-C++] How to use a DLL

[Bruno <bbe...@cl...>]

Hello everybody,

Here is my problem:
I have downloaded a DLL witch i want to use in my program. In the DLL
package there is the header file, a import library file (zlibdll.lib
that i rename in libzlib.a and move to te directory "lib") and the DLL.
In the project options I put -lzlib (linker options). The project is
well compiled but when I run the program a message box tell me "The file
prog.exe is is linked with a missing "exportation" ZLIB.DLL.: (in
french: Le fichier prog.exe est li=E9 =E0 une exportation manquante...).
How to resolv this problem.

Thank you for your help and sorry for my bad english.

Bruno

Don't rename the lib.
Don't link using -l linker options go to project options and put the path
and filename in extra include files section.
This might work (I hope - this is just what I do usually).
