[Geotiff] geotiff_i.lib not being created

[Thom DeCarlo]

Hi Frank,
Well, the only thing I changed was to add the PROJ4 library so the
geotiff_proj4.c file would compile.

This is the output of the nmake:

        lib /out:geotiff.lib xtiff.obj  geo_free.obj  geo_get.obj
  geo_names.obj geo_new.obj  geo_print.obj  geo_set.obj  geo_tiffp.obj
  geo_write.obj  geo_extra.obj  geo_trans.obj  geo_normalize.obj
  geotiff_proj4.obj  cpl_csv.obj  cpl_serv.obj

        link /dll /out:geotiff.dll /implib:geotiff_i.lib xtiff.obj
  geo_free.obj geo_get.obj  geo_names.obj  geo_new.obj  geo_print.obj
  geo_set.obj  geo_tiffp.obj  geo_write.obj  geo_extra.obj
  geo_trans.obj  geo_normalize.obj  geotiff_proj4.obj  cpl_csv.obj
  cpl_serv.obj ..\..\libtiff\libtiff\libtiff_i.lib
  ..\..\proj-4.4.8\src\proj_i.lib

        cl -I. -Ilibxtiff -I..\..\libtiff\libtiff -I..\..\proj-4.4.8\src
 /MD /Ox /nologo bin\listgeo.c geotiff_i.lib
 ..\..\libtiff\libtiff\libtiff_i.lib ..\..\proj-4.4.8\src\proj_i.lib
listgeo.c
LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file 'geotiff_i.lib'
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'cl' : return code '0x2'
Stop.

I tried adding a '/verbose' to the link line, but it produced big, heaping,
stinking, piles of output. :-/ I'm not sure yet what they mean, but I can
send them if you'd like.

Thanks,
Thom
