"make install" will copy them to /usr/local/lib by default. - -Fltk will compile a number of libraries, the multiple libraries are -designed to avoid having programs depend on libraries they are not -acutally using. For instance if the OpenGL functions were put into the -main fltk library you would be forced to link OpenGL even if your -program is not using it. This is a design problem with present-day -implementations of shared libraries on both Unix and Windows. - -The libraries are: - - fltk2 - the core of fltk2, most programs only need this - fltk2_images - functions that use glut, png, jpg, other image libraries - fltk2_gl - Fl_Gl_Window and functions that use OpenGL - fltk2_glut - glut emulation functions - fltk2_forms - forms emulation functions - -Under UNIX you can compile either shared or static libraries. Static -libraries are the default and have names like libfltk2.a. Shared -libraries have (on most Unix systems) names like libfltk2.so.2. To -enable shared libraries run "./configure --enable-shared". - -Under Microsoft Visual C++ a successful build of all projects and -configurations will contain debug (fltk2d.lib and fltk2dlld.lib) and -release (fltk2.lib fltk2dll.lib) libraries for you to link to. Both are -built using the multi-threaded settings. The DLL files (fltk2dll.dll -and fltk2dlld.dll) required for a complete DLL-based binary distribution -are located in the "visualc" directory. WAS: is this correct? What -about when you use GCC or BC++? - |
