Hi,

I'm trying to compile OpenUniverse (www.openuniverse.org) with DM.

The sources seem to compile fine, but when the link process starts I get :

Error: C:\projects\IS\glut32.lib (96403780): Not a Valid Library File
Errors: 1 Warnings:0
Build failed

I think I've used an incompatible (VC++ ?) glut32.lib library.  Where can I find
a compatible one ?

I'm replying my own message...

Found out that I need to create the import library with implib /s

However, now I get Symbol Undefined _glutBitmapCharacter@8 etc...
So many of them, I think it's for every glut function.  So I seem to have an
name mangling issue on my hands.

Anyone who knows how to solve them ?

Ivan

I think you can convert your (possibly COFF format) library with
coff2omf.exe utility.

If it doesn't convert, try converting it first to old COFF format with VC's lib.
