Re: Need help with build on Windows

​I have tried to use db-lib.lib from ​AppVeyor  archive and got same link
issues.

So I went back to CMake + Visual Studio + Manual build

And figure out that need to use replacements.lib too.

So if I link my application to

db-lib.lib
tds.lib
replacements.lib

the build performs without errors and all works fine.

So there are few more question:

1 why replacements.lib is absent in AppVeyor archive
2 I have inherited project that uses SINGLE file db-lib.lib and all works.
But it size much bigger (2.5 Mb for x86). How it can be? may be old version
has such build output?
3 It is correct approach to use 3 libs, or there is a way to get a single
file?

Regards.
