Can someone help try the <textiff.c> file found under this website using Visual C++? http://www.opengl.org/resources/code/rendering/mjktips/libtiff/index.html I am getting link errors despite downloading all the necessary files. I used the tutorial found here <http://www.cs.wisc.edu/graphics/Courses/cs-638-1999/libtiff_tutorial.htm> to setup my Visual c++ environment. Thank you.

Haven't got the time to check the file, but my guess is you need to add some libraries to the linker in visual studio.

There must be some .lib you are missing.

Under the tutorial, I am expected to have a "dlibtiff.lib" file. But this file is nowhere to be found! Tried google but couldn't locate it.

On the page you're refering to, there's a link that says 'source code for libtiff'. So my guess would be that you should download the code and compile it in order to get the .lib.

Actually if you follow the link some more, you'll find the link to the primary download page, where you'll find a link to libtiff_bin_354.zip (bin ~ probably a binary package), and voilá it contains a libtiff.lib (which I guess you need, not dlibtiff.lib). Or get the tiff-v3.6.1.zip package which should be the latest 'release'source-code.

Hi WildFire,

I already downloaded all the stuff mentioned but still couldn't find the critical file "dlibtiff.lib". I am not familiar with these but is it possible that certain files can be generated from the source file. If so, how to do that? Thanks.
