Hi David,
Are the DPDK pkgconfig files intended to work for Windows builds?
I cannot find a test linking an example for Windows out of meson.
I don't know what the best solution is for linking an application
against DPDK for Windows.
Cc'd dpdk windows maintainers.
I've had a quick look and as far as I can see the dependencies are
listed correctly,
but I was less convinced by the use of -Wl,--whole-archive which is
specific to the
GNU linker (Clang/Link configuration requires a sequence of
-Wl,-wholearchive:<library>).
One of the reasons is to avoid statically linked drivers being dropped
by the linker when no explicit reference exists.
