Re: Building with MSVC

[Ross Johnson <rpj@ise.canberra.edu.au>]

Hi Erik,

Have a look at buildlib.bat. The options used there work fine. In
particular the link command line is:

<ALL ONE LINE>

cl /LD /Zi *.obj /Fepthread.dll /link /nodefaultlib:libcmt
/implib:pthread.lib msvcrt.lib /def:pthread.def

Cheers.
Ross
