Hello developers,

win32-libs\zlib123\include

        mt.exe -nologo -manifest "zlib1.dll.manifest" -outputresource:zlib1.dll;

mt: unknown option -- n

usage: mt [-V] [-f device] operation [count]

NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'mt.exe' : return code '0x1'

Stop.

-----------------------------

 

Check your paths, I think you are picking up the cygwin mt.exe which does something totally different to the MS toolchain one.

Cygwin should appear after the MS dev items in your path.
