How to use llama.dll

[SevaSk]

Sorry newbie question! I want to load llama.dll, I didn't compile it myself I just got it from the release page, but there is no .lib file. I don't really want to load every function pointer manually. Is there a better way?

You would need to build from source. You can use cmake to build or generate MSVC project files.

Thanks! Would it matter what cmake args I include? Would the .lib be the same?

I think so, the ABI should be the same regardless of the build args. You have to specify -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON to build as a dynamic library, though.
