[BRLTTY] Accessing brlAPI from Client Application in Windows Environment

[Siju Samuel]

Hi,

Thanks for the info on on the pre-built binaries.  I will modify the
build/environment setup as per the GPL/LGPL  requirements. Currently I am
just trying it understand it better.

Thanks,
Siju samuel

Yes.

mkwin does it.

That said, there are pre-built binaries for windows on
http://brl.thefreecat.org/brltty/

That'll probably save you much headache.

Note: libbrlapi is LGPL. Statically linking with it means your
application has to be LGPL too. If it is not, you need to use dynamic
linking (and you can put the libbrlapi.so file along your application,
if needed)
