HI
Andi,
Thank you for
your response. The libraries I compiled are static. Yes I used the static=yes
option and my libraries are massively different in
size:
Libxml2.lib =
230KB
Libxml2_a.lib =
2,65KB
I changed
the linking on the client project in the snowballs2 build to be (I am
compiling in debug mode so I can do some debugging on future
modifications):
freetype.lib
libxml2_a.lib kernel32.lib user32.lib gdi32.lib winspool.lib comdlg32.lib
advapi32.lib shell32.lib ole32.lib oleaut32.lib uuid.lib odbc32.lib
odbccp32.lib /nologo /subsystem:windows /incremental:no
/pdb:"Debug/snowballs.pdb" /debug /machine:I386 /out:"Debug/snowballs.exe"
/pdbtype:sept
I then get the
following errors:
--------------------Configuration:

I have attached
the config file that I used to compile the libXML2 libraries with. As you can
see I opted for all options including the static ones. If I am missing
something please let me know. Its also weird that I dont have this problem
building any other part of NEL or NELS and most of the tools. I only have this
issue with the Object Viewer and snowballs2.
I am using
libXML2 2.4.26, should I be using another version? I am looking at the link
you sent and will see if there is anything there that may help. Thank you and
I just wanted to make clear how I was compiling and what I was using to
compile with.

Subject: Re: [Nel] libXML, the bane of my
project...
that sounds like both libs
are not static or more to the point that the _a is either not static or not
being linked to...
did you compile it with
the static=yes option?
also check you are
modifying the right build mode
its no good changing the
library to link against in debug build mode options then compiling in release
debug for example you would be surprised how many people fall for that one.
note it defaults to the ACTIVE build mode when you goto properties you should
alter all modes to link to the correct
library.
also you can ignore the
nodefault library warning one OR the other option is to force the library
you intended
this is a guide on how
to do so.
