hi! I'm creating a dll using gcc and cygwin this dll use 2 others dll : -lglut -lGL $pkg-config.exe --libs gl -lGL but /bin/ contain cygGL-1.dll when static linking with -lGL this works fine because libGL.a exist when creating the dll -lGL don't work at all, I have to specify -lGL-1 doing /bin/$ ln -s cygGL-1.dll cygGL.dll solve the issue I have similar issue with some libtool based library
1) on unix system there are usually a set of links libGL.so -> libGL.1.so -> libGL.1.2.so -> libGL.1.2.3.so, which seems to no exist under cygwin, is it normal or wanted feature? 2) if this is normal then pkg-config and libtool shall be fixed to report the right library name thanks and regards JLM -- KISS!
