This works perfectly, but has a great disadvantage: Migrating to a new version of the LibTiff is painful because we have to do the same work again.

Have you ever thought about adding calltype support, like the JPEGlib does? I think the readability of the code does not decrease. Or are there other (better?) ways to add calltype support?

Martin,

I would agree that wrapping all the public definitions in appropriate macros is desirable and I do this on various other projects. Please submit a bug with the request.

However, isn't there a way to direct the compiler to use a particular calling convention that would avoid all this?

Best regards,
