Problem with Jewl on GPS and AdaGide

Problem with Jewl on GPS and AdaGide

[Stoik]

I am looking for someone to help me with JEWL in Windows environment
(Windows XP). I have installed academic version of GPS (2007-2) and
win32ada from the same source. Nevertheless, the linker is reporting:
ld.exe: cannot find -luser32 -lgdi32 -lcomdlg32 -lwinmm (from ld.exe).
What is the solution? Are there special switches or pragmas I should
use?

I have found that you have to replace those names in the source with the full 
paths and names of the libraries installed by win32ada. Maybe there's a better 
way, but that works.

yes the "-Wl,--library-path=", "-Wl,-rpath=" and "-Wl,-rpath-link=" 
options. They must appear before the -l (which is the short form of 
"-Wl,--library=") option.

Here is the solution that I was given to solve this problem:

In file
  jewl-win32_interface.adb
replace the one line
  pragma Linker_Options ("-luser32 -lgdi32 -lcomdlg32 -lwinmm");
with these three lines
  pragma Linker_Options ("-luser32");
  pragma Linker_Options ("-lgdi32");
  pragma Linker_Options ("-lcomdlg32");
  pragma Linker_Options ("-lwinmm");

Build the JEWL library as described in the JEWL documentation.

Oops!  That is four lines.  Too much C today.
