I wrote some code using Allegro library, and I wanted to give .exe to my friend. He told me that program outputs error "missing alleg24.dll". I understand this, but what should I do to join it to .exe file ? I'm using Code::Blocks 1.0RC2 . Thanks for fast answer

The only way to avoid this is to not use functions that require such libraries. Or build yourself a custom header using the defines... but this usually doesn't work unless you know exactly how the software works with the dll.
