Re: [bug-gnu-libiconv] The configure script is using wrong parameter -Wl for msvc complier

[Fx Ne]

I'v already set it, I mean on the root directory of libiconv the libtool file have AR="ar"

But on the libcharset folder it don't!! It's AR="false"

Does libcharset don't need ar!??

Do you know how to ignore this section?

make[1]: Entering directory '/f/Software/Application/lib/libiconv-1.17/lib'
/bin/sh ../libtool --mode=compile --tag=RC  `/bin/sh ./../windows/windres-options --escape 1.17` -i ./../windows/libiconv.rc -o libiconv.res.lo --output-format=coff

It fails now.

As mentioned in the INSTALL.windows file, the AR variable should be set to
AR="<directory>/ar-lib lib"

And 'lib.exe' needs to be present in the PATH.
