Error: "the procedure entry point deflatesetheader could not be located in dynamic link library zlib1.dll"

Error: "the procedure entry point deflatesetheader could not be located in dynamic link library zlib1.dll"

[Trish Cayetano]

When I ran the exe file, it prompted me with error "the procedure entry point deflatesetheader could not be located in dynamic link library zlib1.dll"

The zlib1.dll file is located in the following: 

   C:\GNAT\2015\bin\zlib1.dll
   C:\gtkada\bin\zlib1.dll

And the values in the environment system variable path are:

   C:\gtkada\bin;C:\gtkada\lib\gtkada;C:\GNAT\2015\bin


but I still encounter the errors... How do I fix the error?

Thanks!

1. The name is deflateSetHeader (case sensitive)

2. Do you really use it in your code?

3. You can take zlib1.dll from other distributions, e.g. from GIMP.
Overwrite the original in C:\GtkAda\bin and see what happens.

4. There is libz.a in C:\GtkAda\lib. You could link statically to it.

P.S. Use

   dumpbin.exe /exports foo.dll

to see the symbols exported from a DLL.

The long-term solution would be to implement Zada (Zlib in Ada).
It is a question of taking the spec from Zlib-Ada and making a body with no compression - I do the rest (Deflate compression/decompression).
