    STLPort choosing between dynamic or static lib

    Is there any way to build STLPort iostream libraries statically? Or is it actually better if I keep it as is, and just add the dll file on the release versions of my projects?

    I'd guess that there is a way to compile it statically, because a google( "STLPort static") returns lots of hits.

    There seems to have been a problem with static libs under windows for version 5.0. Can't really tell from the mailing lists exactly how to solve it. Granted my knowledge of makefiles is very limited.

    I'm moving on to version 5.1.0 and will read the documentation more carefully... and GNU Make.
