Eric, in fact we build static libraries. And we currently use a custom build system with a "handmade" link line.

I was able to solve it on unix somehow easily but not on Windows because of the dll_import/export thing. Thus I'm pretty curious, Do you currently compile your code on Windows using shared lib? If yes how do you compile your code with your current build system? -- Erk This email was sent to you by Thomson Reuters, the global news and information company.
