Re: [ft] FTJam build problem (Win32/MinGW)

[Simon Watson]

Hi David, thanks for the suggestion - I hadn't realised there was a
later version of ftjam. Based on Brian's tip, I added "#define
FT2_BUILD_LIBRARY" to ft2build.h and ftjam then built ok. Why it
wasn't picking up the DEFINES statement in the Jamfile I'm not quite
sure. I'll try FTJam 2.5.1 and see what happens.

Thanks again.

Simon.
