[ros-dev] Build with zlib

[Magnus Olsen]

It is allot reason we choice statsic lib.
some program or dll for not use dymatic lib.
and some stuff are being use both in user mode and kmode
for decompress and compress stuff. so zlib need be living in both user mode
and kmode
then is the issue with the host tools they are also need of zlib to build
bootcd.

make it dymsatisc is wasite of time and allot of dublications of same code.
either way staic lib are best way for it can other be use in kmode or user
or at host.

other wise we need dubicate same lib around 10 times or more

Hello.
No, I didn't see the creation of a DLL from the log file.
Perhaps I had understood that zlib was compiled as a static library (eh eh),
but in my opinion this isn't the best way for using a robust, thread safe
library like this one.
I also agree that I could explain my idea wrongly.
Searching into the online english dictionary... and I found a better word,
perhaps "redundant" sounds better than "unuseful".

Sincerely,

Carlo Bramini.
