Little problem with AVI support
« on: November 26, 2004, 10:58:54 AM »
Hello boys, my english is not very good, but I'll try to do the best

I have problems compiling FBA since I added the source for AVI support, I got this source from "FBA Tips and Tricks" thread. When I try to complie my FBA, I receive this error message:


Code: [Select]
Linking executable fba.exe...
c:\fbac\bin\..\lib\gcc-lib\mingw32\3.2.3\..\..\..\..\mingw32\bin\ld.exe: cannot
find -lavifil32
mingw32-make[ 1]: *** [fba.exe] Error 1
mingw32-make: *** [ all] Error 2


Could any one help me???

PD Congratulations by the forum it's really amazing  :D

You need a file called lavifil32.a in your MinGW directory  :D

did you change your makefile to list ALL the folders? I remeber that when I added this function, I needed to add some new folder(s) in  my makefile, the function inside makefile is:

alldir   =

confirm if you have all the folders listed in this function...
<- Who are you?

mingw/lib/

That should be it :)
