In Windows, ...CUPS uses libtool to build libraries. In Windows, libtool requires the -no-undefined switch to build DLLs. (This is because unlike Unix shared libraries, Windows DLLs can't have undefined symbols. CUPS doesn't have an issue with undefined symbols, so the only problem is lack of that switch.) To get DLLs to build, either pass -no-undefined to libtool or patch the libtool created by configure so it doesn't require -no-undefined to create DLLs.<br /><br />I used cups-1.4.2, and I didn't have any problems compiling it. I also used net-snmp-5.5, hplip-3.9.12 and sane-backends-1.0.20.Boris Gjenerohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01198202583955918644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8934044.post-68585865926787531952011-04-02T16:29:21.064-04:002011-04-02T16:29:21.064-04:00How did u get cups dlls?

In the network are 7 PCs and this horror-machine works on 6 - connected with SILEX USB device server. Using this, scanning and printig is possible over tcp/ip. With the PC #7 it doesn't work.<br /><br />I'm very gladfull for your blog. I hope, I can compile this... <br /><br />Thank you for your howto! This will prevent me to kick the printer off the window. <b>Never again HP all in one printer!</b><br /><br />Kind regards from Austria!<br /><br />ClemensAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8934044.post-51957299153172359332010-04-22T09:44:46.993-04:002010-04-22T09:44:46.993-04:00hi, any chance you could please post your binary f...hi, any chance you could please post your binary for hplip/win32?
