[Dev-C++] Usage of a library

[Miguel N. da S. <mn...@ma...>]

Hello everybody!

Here´s my problem:

I´m trying to use "dislin" graphical library  that, in anticipation, I
had put in the "\Dev-C++\lib" directory. So I wrote

-ldismgc

in Project options - Futher object files.

At link time it gives errors like these:

C:\DEV-C_~1\LIB\\libdismgc.a(wgini.o)(.text+0x4890):wgini.c: undefined
reference to `GetStockObject@4'
C:\DEV-C_~1\LIB\\libdismgc.a(wgini.o)(.text+0x4960):wgini.c: undefined
reference to `GetTextMetricsA@8'
C:\DEV-C_~1\LIB\\libdismgc.a(wgini.o)(.text+0x4985):wgini.c: undefined
reference to `DeleteDC@4'


Could anyone explain me what´s happening, please?

By the way, what are those .def files, in "\Dev-C++\lib", for?

Many thanks,
Miguel.
