<p>This is a question more for IOhannes and Christof:<br>
<br>
I'm helping with fluid~ for Windows. I got 2 build methods:<br>
<br>
A - download the binaries from fluidsynth for Windows and use that
to build, link and ship dependencies.<br>
it works perfect for w32 and w64 but i'm not sure if it loads
soundfonts compressed in flac/ogg/etc.<br>
<br>
B - download the MSYS2 package of fluidsynth and build with that
and use IOhannes script to ship dependencies.<br>
Works perfect and i think it loads flac/ogg soundfonts but there's
a catchup. The 32bit builds does not load correctly because is
incompatible with Pd's 32bit "libwinpthread-1.dll".<br>
If I place a newer "libwinpthread-1.dll" in Pd/bin it works.<br>
<br>
Don't know what to do.<br>
<br>
May be add a README.pd to tell w32 users to copy the shipped
"libwinpthread-1.dll" to Pd/bin ?</p>

<p>The existence of the "BUILD_SHARED_LIBS<span class="pl-s">"
option implies that it *should* be possible to build
fluidsynth as a static library.<br>
</span></p>
<p><span class="pl-s">That being said, if fluidsynth itself
depends on external (shared) libraries, the original problem
persists, because you still would need to link the final
binary with those libraries - or make them static as well.
Etc.<br>

I think so.<br>

Do you mean static linking? </div>

<p>The downside is that you're responsible for providing
the correct linker flags, since a static library is
just an archive of object files. For complex
dependencies, you're better off with linking
dynamically and shipping them along side your library.<br>
