build app that use libraries installed from msys2 with pacman

I tried to build my app that uses glib-2.0 with Visual Studio.

The glib-2.0 was installed with pacman from msys2, so I haven't got glib-2.0.lib but I have glib-2.0.a

When I set glib-2.0.a and intl.a in Additional Dependencies from Visual Studio 2013, I got this errors:

Erreur 2 error LNK2001: symbole externe non résolu ___chkstk_ms C:\Users\julien\Documents\Visual Studio 2013\Projects\m\m\libintl.a(loadmsgcat.o) m

Erreur 66 error LNK2001: symbole externe non résolu __imp_getsockopt C:\Users\julien\Documents\Visual Studio 2013\Projects\m\m\libglib-2.0.a(giowin32.o) m

etc etc ...

I have set intl.a too because pkg-config --libs glib-2.0 --msvc-syntax returns:

/libpath:C:/msys64/mingw64/lib.lib glib-2.0.lib intl.lib

What I have to do to build my app?

Solution

  • You need to build GLIB with MSVC.
