Compiling source with mingw + dev-cpp

Post by lincsimp »

hey
I tried compiling the source with mingw, but I get the useless build error 255. It goes fine as a static lib. What am I doing wrong? Is there a tutorial?

cheers

a bit of fiddling with the debugger and I get..

CIrrDeviceWin32.cpp function `irr::IrrlichtDevice* irr::createDeviceEx(const irr::SIrrlichtCreationParameters&)' definition is marked dllimport.


What does this mean?

I've had a search and can't find anything to do with the error 255. Is there a tutorial from building from source with mingw?
