Hi all...

I've managed to build gif2png as a static library on the Mac and use it from BlitzMax, but trying to build a static library under Windows is driving me mad. Has anyone managed this (for gif2png specifically)?

Typically I needed to remove main and add a small helper function to open a file and then call gif2pngs processfiles function.

I've tried doing it under cygwin, but seem to end up dependent on cygwin libs, and have tried doing it with MSVS, but see a lot of curious errors that I've not been able to ferret out.

Anyone out there able to help me on this new platform?
