Re: [ft] Compiling freetype 2.3.9 with bcc fails

[Mirco Babin]

Hi,

 

I applied your patch and compiled.

I see the -L now, but it still results in an error. I believe the -L./objs should be replaced with -Lobjs

Hi,

Could you try following patch? It fixes:

* declare the suffix ".exe" to be added to "apinames".
* prepare CCexe_CFLAGS & CCexe_LDFLAGS.
* put "-Lobj" to CCexe_LDFLAGS when we use bcc.
