Re: [Mingw-users] adding my own libraries to mingw

[William S. <wil...@gm...>]

OK using the suggested makefile on my rand library, I get:

C:\MinGW\local\lib\src\rand>make
gcc   rand.o librand.a   -o rand
c:/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.5.0/../../../libmingw32.a(main.o):main.c:(.tex
t+0xd2): undefined reference to `WinMain@16'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
mingw32-make: *** [rand] Error 1

So far as I know, I configured everything correctly when I installed
mingw. I compiled hello.c ok.
At first I thought it was because I created and modified specs in the
way shown in the HOWTO. But I renamed the specs file and the problem
remained.

Thanks for any help!

============== makefile below
rand: librand.a

CC = gcc

libdir = c:/mingw/local/lib
includedir = c:/mingw/local/include

%.o: %.c
	$(CC) -c $<

rand.o: rand.c rand.h

librand.a: rand.o # and any other objects you wish it to include
	del $@
	ar rcvs $@ $^

install:
	copy librand.a $(libdir)
	copy rand.h $(includedir)

clean:
	del *.o

distclean: clean
	del *.a
