[Mingw-users] gcj and libiconv-2.dll

[Matthew L. <ml...@gm...>]

Hi everyone,

I am trying to compile the standard HelloWorld.java program into a
native executable using GCJ. At the MSYS prompt, I type in:

  $ gcj --main=3DHello -oHello Hello.java

and then:

  $ Hello.exe=20
  Hello World!

Success. But at the MS-DOS prompt, if I type in:

  c:\home>Hello.exe

then I am greeted with the following error message:

  "This application has failed to start because libiconv-2.dll was not
found. Re-installing the application may fix the problem"

I was under the impression that GCJ could create a exectuable that
runs independently, without depending on files like libiconv-2.dll. Is
this normal or is this a problem that I can fix?

Thanks,
Matt
