cannot link with libtiff

[M_D dot Weiss at t-online dot de (Michaela und Daniel Weiß)]

Hi,

I haven't found this problem in the mailing list archive:

I have been trying to use libtiff (tiff-3.5.7-1) in my program (using
daily updated cygwin version). According to the announcement (Charles
Wilson on Feb 10th):

<BEGIN QUOTE>
Now uses the auto-import functionality of newer binutils, and
doesn't use __declspec(dllimport).  This means you no longer need
"-DTIFF_STATIC -DJPEG_STATIC -DZLIB_STATIC" or even -DALL_STATIC
when compiling objects intended for static linking. Just compile
as normal. (...) NO special flags at compile-time nor link-time when
linking to dynamic links.
<END QUOTE>

So I have tried to compile my program with the line:

gcc -Wall -O3 *.c

and get this output:

main.c: In function `main':
main.c:8: warning: unused variable `d'
main.c:25: warning: control reaches end of non-void function

Compiling with 'gcc -Wall -O3 -ltiff *.c' gives the same result, trying
to link statically also. The auto import works for the math library,
though, I don't need to put 'gcc -lm ...'

How can I link with libtiff?

Thanks for your help,
Daniel
