That's it! The voodoo was in the name of the entry point. As I said, I had tried "main" but that didn't work. The actual desired entry point was "mainCRTStartup". So adding "/subsystem:windows /entry:mainCRTStartup" to the linker options alters a former console app to execute without the console window. Same effect as running "editbin /subsystem:windows" on the console executable as described by Tor a few messages ago. _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
