Re: Cygwin - linker errors - __assert, __itob and __ftol

["C S" <usmgoldeneagle at gmail dot com>]

my whole command line script is:

g++ -mno-cygwin -D__int64="long long" -Wl,-mno-cygwin -shared -I
"C:\Apps\Java\jdk1.6.0_05\include" -I
"C:\Apps\Java\jdk1.6.0_05\include\win32" -I "C:\Users\me\My
Documents\shapefiles\shapelib-1.2.10\shapelib-1.2.10" -I
"C:\Users\me\My Documents\shapefiles\shapelib128_bin_win" -L
"C:\Users\me\My Documents\shapefiles\shapelib128_bin_win" myFile.cpp
-o libShapeData.dll "C:\Users\me\My
Documents\shapefiles\shapelib128_bin_win\shpopen.obj" "C:\Users\me\My
Documents\shapefiles\shapelib128_bin_win\dbfopen.obj"

yeah i just typed in the 1 wrong. i am actually using an 'L'.

if i take the -Wl,-mno-cygwin option out then i get the following error(s):

-undefined reference to '_libmsvcrt_a_iname' along with other
.drective warnings for -defaultLib such as LIBC and OLDNAMES
-undefined reference to __nm___itob
Info: resolving __itob by linked to __imp___itob(auto-import)

thanks Dave K!
