Re: [Openexr-devel] zlib static library error

[Drew Hess]

Hi Naveed,

I'm not exactly sure which "solution" you're referring to: did you use the 
zlib solution file that's included with the OpenEXR source code release?  
I've never tried to build OpenEXR against any zlib except the one compiled 
from source using the solution file included with OpenEXR.

In any case, if you're using Visual Studio .NET 2003, you don't need 
IlmImfDll.  It's only necessary for people using older versions of Visual 
Studio with the IlmImf C language interface.
