lib files

[joelcnz]

I can't get the right lib files.

I've downloaded MSVC 11 files from allegro.cc website. I tried the lib files from MSVC, and got 'Error 43: Not a Valid Library File'. 'create_import_libs.bat' doesn't seem to do any thing.

Thanks for any help.

Here's what just worked for me. I put the implib.exe file inside the checked-out DAllegro5 directory and extracted allegro-5.0.10-monolith-mt.dll from the MSVC 11 zip file. Then I compiled DAllegro (using build_lib_dmd.bat) and generated the import library using create_import_libs.bat. Now I had dallegro5.lib and allegro.lib in this directory. I could then compile the example like so: dmd example.d allegro.lib dallegro5.lib.

See if that works for you.

Thanks, I'll let you know how I go.

I can't seem to get the file 'allegro.lib'.

Could you paste the output of running create_import_libs.bat?

Hmm, that's the same output I get too, except I also get the allegro.lib file... I'm not sure what is wrong.

[joelcnz]

It's something to do with the computer, it's not running very well. I got it working in a different folder.
