For people who have not programmed, here is how to make libs

Post by Dann Corbit »

Sometimes people ask me how to do simple programming things. I usually write a document to help them. I decided to accumulate these things on my web site. Normally, something like this would go into programming, but it is so simple that most programmers know how to do it, so I am putting it here instead. Anyway, here is a lesson on how to make libraries using Microsoft Visual C++:

Good point. If a picture is only worth 1000 words, why is it that my images take more than one million words in space? Hardly seems a bargain when examined that way.
I made a bzip2 compressed version:
209,201,843 vc-lib.rtf
7,117,495 vc-lib.rtf.bz2
Got a pretty good squeeze out of it.

Does sound pretty small for a microsoft library.

Hi Gerold. The original rtf file doesn't exist any more. It's now been compressed, and the new link is:
