The VideoLAN Forums

Hi all,

I have tried to compile VLC for WIndows CE for a week, using the compiler and libs provided on the official web site.

My configure script is :

./configure --build=i686-linux --host=arm-wince-pe --target=arm-wince-pe --prefix=/usr/local/wince --disable-sdl --disable-dvdread --disable-nls --disable-sout --disable-vlm --disable-wxwindows --disable-libmpeg2 --disable-fribidi --disable-mad --disable-plugins --disable-gnomevfs --enable-tremor --disable-ffmpeg --disable-faad --with-freetype-config-path=/usr/local/wince/contrib-xscale/bin

I am pretty sure to have all the needed library installed, but I am stuck on this error for a long time now :

Warning: .drectve `/DEFAULTLIB:"coredll.lib" /DEFAULTLIB:"corelibc.lib" ' unrecognized
Warning: .drectve `/DEFAULTLIB:"coredll.lib" /DEFAULTLIB:"corelibc.lib" ' unrecognized
Warning: .drectve `/DEFAULTLIB:"coredll.lib" /DEFAULTLIB:"corelibc.lib" ' unrecognized
./modules/misc/libfreetype.a(libfreetype_a-freetype.o):freetype.c:(.text+0x5f0): undefined reference to `GetWindowsDirectoryW'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

I have searched on the web and it seems that a lot of people encountered the same error but no available answer is proposed.

Thanks a lot in advance for your help !
