#1 2 requestes

[William Cullen]

two things

the first is can you distribute precompiled librarys with
source? i have ben up all night trying to get this thing to
compile.

the second is could you suport the borland(?) free cpp
compiler? Getting the cigwin port of g++ to install is a
beast of a chore espeseley if you dont remember shell.

Thank you
WEC

I would like to redistribute the precompiled library,
however, it's way too big (and there are a few compilers I
need to precompile for)

Second, please post a link to the borland free compiler. As
I know, they're pretty ancient with template support -
hopefully this is not so anymore.

Indeed, g++ is a pain in the behind - when setting up.
Thus, I recommend you go to:
http://www.bloodshed.net, and download Dev-c++ there. It
comes pre-bundled with gcc 3.3. All you need to do is
install it.

Best,
John

I agree that cygwin can be a PITA to install. There is a
great alternative though: The Dev-C++ IDE
(http://bloodshed.net/dev/devcpp.html) includes mingw. It's
also gcc-based, but uses a native Windows C library and thus
doesn't require any runtime libraries like cygwin does.
Plus with Dev-C++ you will rarely have to use the shell
yourself :-)
