a) The document re:auto-link indicates that not all platforms support it. That leaves me wondering what happens when the macros are included in the library source code an its compiiled? Is there an error message. Does everything work with the same as w/o auto-linking macros?
I believe I can anser this. (If not someone will surely let me know ;-) como does not do its own linking; it uses the linker associated with the backend compiler. Therefore, if it is used in conjunction with a compiler that does not support auto link, there's no way it can support auto link. So the question is whether it supports auto link when used with a backend that supports auto link. To test this, I compiled the following program on como with VC7.1: #pragma comment(lib, "asfdhjkalsdflkjhsadf") int main() { } and got an 'unrecognized pragma' warning. Since auto link relies on pragma comment, I conclude that it doesn't work with como. Jonathan
