 Hi there,

 I am not sure at what stage you are (meanning if you already have your
libtiff.lib build already).

In any case the best thing I can do is to refer you to the zip files
 http://www2.dmsolutions.on.ca/mapserver/ms_vc_makefiles_v3.3.009.zip

containing the makefiles necessary for mapserver to link properly with Tiff
and Freetype librairies.

I have added in this zip a file called COMPILE_MAPSERVER.vc with basic
instructions on steps to follow.

Perhaps a special note for those who do not want the freetype version but the
libtiff, you have to edit the makefile.vc (the one in the main mapserver
directory) and comment out any referenece to freetype library (all thinks
related to TTF and gdft should be removed).

If you still have a problem, please let me know what exactly are the errors.

I have also put a mapserver.exe binary file with tiff and true type support
for those who needs it.

Hope it helps,


Best Regards.
