[Expat-discuss] Trouble using static expat in MS VS2005

[tyounger at questertangent.com]

That was my initial question when I started using Expat.

Here is the correct reply from Karl:

For static linking you need to define a specific symbol.
If I remember correctly it is XML_STATIC.

Hi,

I have to use the Static library of Expat.

I have downloaded expat-2.0.1

I want to use the expat_static,

I had compiled the files in Visual studio 6.0 and trying to use the Lib in
one more static library which I have created.

But the library is compiled but the Link error:

Could you please suggest, how to use the libexpatMT.lib
