Question to compiling FreeImage 3.19.11 with GCC

[herb52]

Hello Danoli

I am using FreeImage.dll from (old) version 3.18.0.

Looking for a newer version I found your package. Thanks for it.

After reading the attached documentation I was sure that I can compile it on Windows 10
with Mingw-W64 GCC compiler 10.2.0 or GCC 15.1.0 (downloaded from winlibs: https://winlibs.com/#download-release )

Within cmd.exe I prepared $PATH so that it includes the ..\bin directory for gcc or g++
and started the compiling with
mingw32-make -f makefile.mingw

But e.g. for compiling freeimage.cpp I always get the following errors:

In file included from e:\development\mingw-w64\v10.2.0.posixseh64\x86_64-w64-mingw32\include\corecrt.h:10,

and many others of same type.

What is missing or what do I wrong?

On the other hand is it possible that you build FreeImage.dll and add it to the released package?

Thanks for your help in advance.
Best regards
