Re: [Dev-C++] Linker problem

[carlos D. M. <cg...@wo...>]

mingw32 uses libraries with the extension *.a. And regarding past messages, you
must transform the *.lib to *.a. Some sites says you only have to change it by
simply renaming the files, others that you must use a program to convert them.
In cygwin, you use the command-line mv *.lib *.a, so pass it in the further
compiler options field. Or you can try it running the mingw32.exe, because
cygwin is a port of gcc for linux emulation in windows, and mingw32 is the port
of gcc for windows in windows, so it shall work.
Or just you don't need them, so remove them from the project options and see
what happens.
