[Mapserver-users] compiling 3.7 w/ gd2 & GDAL on windows

[Ed McNierney]

Rich -

I made the decision to use the versions of various support libraries
(zlib, libtiff, etc.) that are INSIDE GDAL.  That's what's causing your
multiple definitions.

I still haven't had a chance to post my Windows build on FTP, but that
will point the way.  In the meantime, it's not that hard do to.

1. Build GDAL.
2. Build GD, editing the makefile so ALL supporting libraries it uses
are the ones inside GDAL.
3. Build MapServer without using the standalone versions of libpng,
libtiff, libgeotiff, zlib, jpeg-6b, etc.

Subject: [Mapserver-users] compiling 3.7 w/ gd2 & GDAL on windows

I can't get 3.7 mapserv.exe to link on windows due to a " one or more 
multiply defined symbols found" error. The multiply defined symbols are 
inflate, deflate, etc. which apparently are a part of zlib.

I am trying to compile with gd 2.0.11 and GDAL 1.1.8, both of which 
reference these functions.

Can anyone suggest what I am doing wrong?

Thanks,
Rich
