Libraries?
Posted: 2008-04-18T23:27:31-07:00
Hello all. I just have a few novice questions that I've been dying to find an answer for. First, I love the Magick++ API. It's pretty intuitive and got me on my way to image manipulation fairly quickly.
Now my question is this. Is there any way that the 10 or more .DLLs required to run a program could be put into a static library form so that I can distribute it without the additional DLLs? My situation is that I have a command line program, but packing 10+ DLLs in a package for a very simple piece of software seems a bit over the top. It would be much easier if I could distribute a single .EXE or even one with less .DLL dependencies.
I used a binary install of it, which could potentially be the issue. But do you think that I would be able to compile down the .DLL libraries into *.LIB for ease of use? If so, how could I go about doing that?
Thank you for your time
