Re: [Dev-C++] Problems with linking FFTW library

[<wa...@wa...>]

I have not used the FFTW libraries and I don't have them installed 
and I don't have time right now to download them and write something 
to test them.  But as I said, the FFTW 3.01 files look like they're 
set up for Visual C++.  The hint is in the way the library is named.  
With Dev C++/mingw, the format for the library is 

lib<library name>.a

Take a look at the FFTW 2.1.5 filenames, they follow this convention.

I would not expect the fftw3.lib file to link properly.  It's almost 
definitely in the wrong format. I think you're stuck with using FFTW 
2.1.5 until someone comes out with a FFTW 3.0.1 Dev Pack for Dev 
C++/MinGW... unless you pick up another compiler.

Sorry.
