Currently it's also not possible because MinGW/MSVC builds use the same makefiles. But I believe both can be fixed because the sentense >>>object files for a DLL need to be compiled with >> different, incompatible flags than object files for a static library. seems to be not very correct (it is possible to built both static and dynamic Win32 library from the same objects files, although with some linker warnings. Of course, some modifications to sources/makefiles are required). - Dmitry Bely ------------------- To unsubscribe, mail caml-list-request@inria.fr Archives: http://caml.inria.fr Bug reports: http://caml.inria.fr/bin/caml-bugs FAQ: http://caml.inria.fr/FAQ/ Beginner's list: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ocaml_beginners
