The libwww .dsp's do contain the proper references to the correct libraries. If I understand your process, you are attempting to build a project (dsw and dsp) 'from scratch'. The way to add import libraries or static lib's (all of the libwww libs that I am aware of are import libs) is the same. On the file view of the project, right mouse click and hit 'add files'. Then just navigate to the directory where the .lib files reside and add them. Note that when you run, you will need to make sure that the corresponding DLL's are in your path. As far as regex, expat, and other 'external' stuff goes, it comes with the libwww (library\external if I recall correctly). Just add those files directly to the project (the .lib files that is.)

Hi Fred, thanks again for helping out. > All of the examples use the wwwcore, and other libraries, so check your > library paths. I thought the .dsp would contain references to the libraries it needs, and if it would not find them, warn me.. Is this not how it goes? The .dsp wants to dynamicly link to the gnu_regex.dll and 3 more libs. I noticed the precense of their equivalent .lib files (instead of the .dll's) I hoever have tried and trie to make an executable independant of those .dlls, but could not tell msvc (we have a bit of a communication problem :) to staticly link to the .libs.. Is this possible? > Another way I have used is to just readd the libs to the project.

In VC terms, where would you suggest I'd do that? in the ->>options->directory->libraries screen?. I have noticed that one can see what seem to be the library dependance of a project within a dsw by opening a project, and seeing a 'shortcut' to a library within the porject's files. I have tried and tried to give my project folder such a shortcut, but am unclear what to do. > > When I first started using the lib my first exercise was exactly what > you are doing and it does help to understand how the source code/dll's > are structured. Nice to know I'm not the only one :). I'm sorry if I'm clugging this list with what might be more compiler inexperience than in depth discussion of the library. I hope I will soon understand how to use libwww in my compilercontext, and actually talk about the library. Again thanks for your help, very much appreciated, Lucas
