Hi guys,
i have just downloaded the sources for glfw-3.3.8 and used cmake and mingw32-make to compile the sources. So far so good.
But when i try to link the /build/src/libglfw3.a file like that:
g++ test.cpp C:\git\opengl\glfw-3.3.8\glfw-3.3.8\build\src\libglfw3.a -o test
and then call any function, i get the following output in the terminal:
