Hi,

I'm trying to create a static lib on Windows, but I'm running into this error: "error: Unresolved external symbol '__imp___acrt_iob_func' referenced from". I found this thread where Fred said to use /D__iob_func=__p__iob, but it looks like it only works for x86. Is there a solution for x64?

Making static libs is difficult because of the CRT version pb uses which is ancient, Freds going to address that in 6.10. you can try to add the relevant crt libs to your archive but even then sometimes it doesn't work

Maybe its will be easier with the coming PB 6.10 version.
