Actually, I did not interpret it that way. To me, this just says if you want to link against the C++ bindings of the ncurses library, you have to use the static library. You can alternatively link to either the static or the DLL version of the C bindings. But I agree with your findings. The info messages aren't the source of your problems. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
