Hi Penumalli,

Unfortunately I never got it to work, I spent days at it but had to give up in the end. It seems like it should be something very easy to do but I just couldn't figure it out.

I think we need to set the path to the JPEG files so they link properly. If you see Makefile.vc, the lines:

INCL = -I. $(JPEG_INCLUDE) $(ZLIB_INCLUDE) suggest this.

I think these are set in nmake.opt. I did try setting the path there, but I got different errors.

I am currently using the compiled libtiff which came with the installer. This unfortunately has a bad memory leak when opening and closing the image frequently so I quite badly need to compile it libtiff too. I'll be having a look at it again in 2 weeks or so, meanwhile if you have any success please let me know.

Good luck

Alex

Hi Alexander Johnson,

I got the same problem which was previously u got i.e

Does anyone know how to compile libtiff using the libtiff library in

windows. I have compiled the libjpeg bibrary and have placed the 4
required
header files and the .lib file into the libtiff folder source folder.
When
i try to build the makefile.vc file it fails during linking. It looks
like

the libjpeg.lib file isnt being found, but how do I add it correctly?

Below are the errors i get which occur when compiling the libtiff folder

of
the source code

Creating library libtiff_i.lib and object libtiff_i.exp
