<div> It seems that gdal always links it's applications to dynamic lib. at last I change the <a href="http://makefile.vc">makefile.vc</a> in the app folder with below lines.<div style="FONT-FAMILY: Tahoma, Arial; HEIGHT: 100%; FONT-SIZE: 9pt" dir="ltr" id="main">

Thanks a lot for your replay!<br>

I got the gdal.lib,but while I link the program to this lib,it still needs<br>
gdal18.dll. this confused me . I had tried to comment out DLLBUILD=1 ,<br>
but the commandline programs need gdal18.dll too. even replacing all<br>
gdal_i.lib with gdal.lib helps nothing.<br>
I know little about nmake/cl/link, whitch are used in the gdal's vs<br>
slution. It seems in linux configure we can build static gdal with<br>
--enalbe-static,but I don‘t know how to do this in VS nmake.<br>
Best regards! and thank you again!<br>

Well, it took me a while, but I did a default build with MSVC2008 Express<br>
on windows with GDAL 1.8.1 and then issued this command from within the<br>
<br>
cl /MD apps/gdalinfo.c gdal.lib /Ilib /Igcore /Iport /Ialg /Iogr /Iogr/ogrsf_frmts<br>
<br>
This produced a 4MB gdalinfo.exe (statically linked) that works fine.<div><div class="h5"><br>
