#422 Wrong import LIB version

[Luigi Bianchi]

Hi, it seems to me that something is wrong with naming scheme in import libraries: I can compile and link OWL-6.44.3-b730-x86-t.dll but while doing the same thing with OCF I have an error indicating that OWL-6.44.0-b730-x86-ti.lib is missing. Note that the subversion is different 6.44.3 vs 6.44.0. Where can I redirect it? Also my DLL based owl apps suffer from the same problem,
Thank you in advance,

Luigi

P.S. A workaround is obviously to rename the lib file....
P.P.S. I'm using C++ Builder 10.2.3.

Actually the fix seems to be quite easy: there are two different version.h files, one in \source\owlcore\version.h in which OWL_VERSION(v) is defined as
#define OWL_VERSION(v) v(6,44,3,$WCREV$)

whereas in
\include\owl\version.h it is defined as
#define OWL_VERSION(v) v(6,44,0,0)

Apparently, turning this last into
#define OWL_VERSION(v) v(6,44,3,0)

solves the problem

Hi, Luigi,

The version.h in the source folder contains a placeholder, which is used to generate the version.h in the include folder. To do that, you have to check the option "Perform build setup" in the OWLMaker wizard.

Hi Luigi and Jogy,

From the sounds of it, this is a non-issue, solved by rebuilding the core OWL and OCF libraries with "Perform build setup" selected. Hence I have closed the ticket as "wont-fix".

However, if there should be a real issue here, let me know.
