BTW, mixing MSVC-based code with cygwin-based is inherently unreliable and liable to fail unpredictably. I guess the vendor isn't likely to want to share their dll source with you so you could recompile it with gcc, but it might not be /too/ complicated to just take a look at the USB transactions that get sent across the bus when you try to manipulate the gpios using their dll, then throw together your own custom library to send the same transactions using libusb or similar.
This works in Linux already (we extended the linux driver to emulate the gpio capbilities of the vendor DLL).
...especially since he seemed to imply that he already has his own working source for Linux. It should (FLW) be fairly easy to port this to Cygwin (seeing as how Cygwin's purpose is to emulate Linux, and make porting Linux code easy).
