    I compiled this morning the version gmsh-2.5.1-svn-20111220-source
    with no problem. I compile in 32 bit MSVC 2008 with blas (Intel)
    /Open Cascade.<br>
    Do you use cl compiler or Intel Compiler within Visual studio ?<br>
    Can you try to compile in 32 bit ? WSAStartup seems to be defined
    only in WIN32.<br>

      <br>
      This is what I did. As mentioned by you, I configured gmsh in
      CMAKE with visual studio 2008 (win 64) compiler. I disabled
      BLOSSOM and FLTK and gave the appropriate paths for BLAS and
      LAPACK libraries (I am using BLAS and LAPACK libraries which comes
      along with Intel Compiler). I was able to build static and dynamic
      libraries both. But when I linked them with my application, I got
      following run time error:<br>
      <br>
      Gmsh.lib(GmshMessage.obj): error LNK2001: unresolved external

      Gmsh.lib(OS.obj): error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol
      gethostname<br>
      <br>
      Well, I observed that these functions are available in the code,
      but still wondering why my application is not able to link them.
      Is there any pre-processor to be defined before compiling? Or is
      it because I'm trying to build gmsh for 64-bit windows machine?<br>
      <br>
      Thanks<br>

            You can compile gmsh without any external lib. But
            Blas/Lapack is mandatory for 3D meshing if i'm not wrong and
            opencascade for CAD geo files.<br>

                  (such as blas, lapack etc). What other libraries I

                        I corrected the source for msvc. It compile if
                        you uncheck blossom and fltk. There is also a

                              Gmsh can be built as a .lib for sure under
                              MSVC 2008. Generate your project with
                              cmake, uncheck FLTK in cmake and build the
                              lib project to obtain a library. (.lib)<br>
                              The ENABLE_MSVC_STATIC_RUNTIME is used to
                              switch between /MD and /MT.<br>
                              To obtain a dll file you may change the
                              output configuration type of the gmsh
                              project to dll instead of exe (not the lib

                              PS: up to date svn version does not built
                              on msvc 2008, some fixes are needed.
                              Download an older version.<br>
