Compiling XviD with Dev-C++

[nexus]

Has anybody managed to compile XviD with Dev-C++?

Let's start with libxvidcore. I tried to import libxvidcore.dsp in Dev-C++.
I get two error messages, INSTALL and README are missing. This is no problem, because they can be found in the "doc"-directory.
When I try to compile the project, I get the error message "g++.exe: bin/xvidcore.dll.a: No such file or directory". Can anybody tell me why? I thought this file will be created during the compiling process.
I searched a lot, but almost all people use M$ VC to compile. But I wanna try it with Dev-C++.

Thanks for any help

I thought this file will be created during the compiling process. Indeed, this file is supposed to be created during compilation - *if* you compile xvidcore. The same project file can be used to compile xvid_encraw and xvid_decraw examples (which in turn *require*, not create, .dll.a), so make sure you're not trying to compile them.

Are you using 1.0.2 or 1.1 sources? Are you trying to compile release or debug version?

As I wrote, I try to compile the core (build\win32\libxvidcore.dsp).
I use the 1.0.2 source (the .zip file from xvid.org)
