Cannot build LibAbiword.dll

Hi Jean-Marc,

I am building Abiword (The whole SOLUTION) on Windows as you told me,
following the guidelines on
http://abiword.com/wiki/Developing_AbiWord_on_Windows_using_Visual_C%2B%2B.
When I build the trunk on Release mode, I get 31 unresolved externals
while linking LibAbiword.dll.

I did an SVN update today.

I have put the result in a texte file attached to this email.

Could you point out to me why I get that?

Thanks,

Dominique
ANAFA, Sénégal
