[lxml-dev] Compilation of lxml on Windows 64-bit

[Hanni Ali]

Hi Sidnei,

I have suceeded in compiling some form of libxml2 and libxslt, however I
have not been able to use them to compile lxml which I think is due to some
issues I have been having with iconv. I have managed to get lxml to compile
using the win_iconv I found here:

http://www.gtk.org/download-windows-64bit.html

However the linker throws a whole host of unresolved external symbol errors,
would you mind taking a look at the attached file to see if you notice
something I'm doing wrong?

Let me know if I can provide anything else which may help.

Kind Regards,

Hanni
