It is possible to generate the libgmp-10.dll file with a different name?

[Robert Baron]

I do not know of any configure option, but you can set additional link flags on the make command line to disable versioning as follows.

	make LDFLAGS="-avoid-version"

this will create libgmp.dll (no version number).

Thanks for the suggestion, but you probably are not familiar with Windows dll files.
It is useless to just rename a DLL like any other file. Inside the DLL you also need to change the name.
But you can't just use a Hex editor for that and eventually add extra bytes to the DLL (in case you want a longer name).
That will break the DLL.

So my question is if there is some configuration variable that can be changed after ./cofigure?

I am sure there is a command in Windows for renaming a file.
