The GTK+ 2.6.8 developer package for Windows available at ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v2.6/win32/gtk+-dev-2.6.8.zip contains import libraries for Microsoft's tools (.lib files). As the .lib files are import libraries, they don't contain any compiled code as such. (The actual code is in the corresponding DLLs.) Hopefully you aren't actually asking for statically built libraries? That's futile. Even if there wasn't any .lib files provided, it would be trivial to build such yourself when you have the DLL, and know that the calling convention is the normal for C code, cdecl. (I.e. no stdcall crap.) Just use Microsoft's link.exe and lib.exe: link -dump -exports libgtk-win32-2.0-0.dll >gtk-win32-2.0.def edit the listing into a proper .def file, it should look like this: EXPORTS gtk_show_about_dialog gtk_about_dialog_get_artists gtk_about_dialog_get_authors ... and then run: lib -name:libgtk-win32-2.0-0.dll -def:gtk-win32-2.0.def -out:gtk-win32-2.0.lib Isn't this documented in the documentation for the Microsoft tools you hopefully got when you bought them? (The fact that the DLLs are built with GNU tools (gcc and binutils) is irrelevant. C code built with gcc is binary compatible with code built with Microsoft tools. I built the .lib files using the "freely" downloadable Visual C++ Express Edition 2005 Beta 2 (or whatever its exact name is).) --tml _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
