I did statically link years ago but then, as you said, new releases of some
libraries prevented me from doing this anymore and I needed to link
dynamically.
I managed to remove the extra preprocessor definitions from my application.
I then modified the code to look like test 2 above which works and allows
me to continue. Test 3 still causes a crash but I cannot see a reason for
it :|
