Hey Laurent,

Thanks for your reply. Just before compiling the nightly build, I wanted to
know the minimum supporting libraries required to compile gmsh as a .lib
file. (such as blas, lapack etc). What other libraries I need to have
before compiling it as a static library?

Thanks in advance

Regards
Rakesh Patil
