Hi Frank, for the Windows platform the free Cygwin and Borland compilers are supported. I don't recommend Borland since the make file format is primitive and it doesn't support threading either. A recent cygwin package should do it just well. Concerning the cygwin1.dll thing.... i also don't know if there are static libraries to link against for standalone externals.
best greetings, Thomas

Hallo, Thomas Grill hat gesagt: // Thomas Grill wrote:
i only have cygwin here and can't compile flext to support threading.
you have to use a newer version of cygwin with a gcc-3.x compiler. Threading should work then
Oh, I didn't see yet, that you also provide Cygwin-configs (I didn't have time to look). So this means, that with a recent Cygwin (or also MinGW?) I can build flext and flext-ernals on Windows without needing to buy an expensive MS-product that's not included in W2000?
I'll have to take a deeper look, because maybe then I can provide W32-versions of my externals in the future myself ;)
It would be cool to have a little tutorial on how to make W32 and OS-X ready to compile externals (flext and others), btw. Linux comes with the needed tools built in.
