Re: [Mingw-users] Can't use external Libs?

[Depo C. <dep...@gm...>]

Library Path is C:\MinWG\lib
I took out path and suffix.
Still errors.

gcc -LC:\MinGW\lib -p -pg -oTestC.exe TestC.o -llibglfw -llibglfwdll
c:/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.5.2/../../../../mingw32/bin/ld.exe: 
cannot find -llibglfw
c:/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.5.2/../../../../mingw32/bin/ld.exe: 
cannot find -llibglfwdll
