#535 Can´t get .lib libraries in Win/Cygwin

[Anonymous]

Hi

I´m trying to build ATLAS 3.8.1 on Windows under Cygwin. I have gcc 3.4.4-3 installed and I would like to use the ATLAS libraries in MSVC++ 2005 (8.0).

From what understod from the installation guide, I need to build .lib or .dll libraries. I also need to compile the interface (ic) with MSVC compiler. Is this correct?

I have no problems with running configure or make build, and make check and make time look good but the output libraries have .a extension. I run configure with:

../configure -b 32 -D c -DWALL -C ic cl --nof77

Configure does recognize the OS as WinNT. Shouldn´t this give .lib files in the end?

Could you somehow help me to build .lib libraries.

ATLAS uses the unix file extenion .a (in ATLAS/lib). I believe it should work to simply rename the files .lib after the install is done if you want the .lib extension.

Let me know,
Clint

No response, assuming fixed.
