Probably you need to put the file pthreadsVC.dll (you can download it 
from ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/pthreads-win32/dll-latest/lib/) in 
your system directory.

Thanks; that does work as well as putting it in the current
directory.  However, I was wanting to statically link so I would not
need to install a dll.

pthreads-win32 isn't distributed as a static library in binary form.
you're going to have to compile it with your application or just compile
a static library. open the pre-made project file from the source distrib
and change the target to a static library (using vc++). hope that helps.

oh yeah i forgot to mention. according to section 6a of the LGPL, if you
are going to publicly release whatever project you are working on and
you statically link pthreads-win32 you must also distribute the seperate
linkable object code of your program along with the pthreads-win32
library source.

archive? questions from new win32/pthreads user

[Bobby Krupczak]

Hi!

Is there an archive for this list?  I have a bunch of questions and it
would be nice to search the archive.

The announcement on
http://sources.redhat.com/pthreads-win32/announcement.html 
still points to pthreads-win32-subscribe@sourceware.cygnus.com

I'm trying to statically link a test app on xp using win32-pthreads.
When I run the app, I get a popup that said that it was unable to find
the .dll file.

I'm using MSVC6 with pthreadsVC.lib

Thanks,

Bobby
