ok i recently had a little experience adding .lib files to my programs . in vc++ 5.0 one way you can add a lib file is by going to project>settings>link then by typing the apropriate .lib into an edit box. seems like a lot of work to do unless you needed a ton of .libs but the easyer way of doing this is by simply typing
| CODE |
| #pragma comment(lib, "alibrary.lib") |
right under your headers. i hate when things are harder than they have to be.
Yes, I suppose, but try porting that to a Borland compiler ;)
Nice though, I had no idea you could do that.
I'm using the Borland's commandline compiler and it knows the "pragma" precompiler command. I don't know if that would work but I always use it to link *.res files into my exe. Like this:
| CODE |
| #pragma resource "resource.res" |
I normally add *.lib files when writting the compile *.bat so I haven't tested that yet but I don't see why it wouldn't work.
The #pragma directive is compiler defined, so my compiler's #pragmas will almost for sure not be found on your compiler.
