The change went a bit further, as I mentioned previously, in that even on linux machines the builds do not create static libs. I think it reasonable that the libs can be built both static and dynamic, like everything else, but the documentation can state that the static libs (on win32) should only be used for certain circumstances. Unless I am missing something, if they are conditionally compiled, then the link will fail to find the proper symbols anyway. -- Jody Hagins "If you are beginning to doubt what I am saying, you are probably hallucinating." -- The Firesign Theatre, _Everything you know is Wrong_
