[PD] Windows/MinGW DLL dependencies. Was: cyclone/maxlib-maintenance-(w32)

Hi Fred,

First, Did you recompiled [coll] with changes from the previous pkg?

If you did not recompiled with changes I have "troubles" and I'm just looking for them.

Yes, I did my tests on a relatively clean machine (win 8.1) with a patch that open every help.pd in the pkg, there I get popups of missing.dll, place them and re-tested the pkg again, closing and reopening pd for each pkg test (.dlls remain loaded if not closing pd).

This type of test can not be done in win10, this Os does not popup missing .dll and it does not report it in the "event viewer" at least not for Pd.

Other few pkgs were tested only with DependancyWalker, i.e iemmatrix.


Please don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that "libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll" is not needed, I want to know why I have not detected it in the previous pkg, and transfer this possible "problem" to other pkgs.

Again, did you recompile [coll]?


Salutti,
Lucarda.
