Thanks for the replies, I got the picture. I have managed to stay of other compilers than Visual Age, but that's over now on Intel platforms! And I really want to stay off of Visual C++, so cygwin or mingw seemed good alternatives. I'll take a closer look at mingw also. Thanks again, Dan --

Hi, just to get this straight. Are you saying that I can't make C++ dll's in cygwin for use in 'normal' Windows? So, if I need to do that my only choice is MS Visual C++! There's not even a native gcc for Windows? Dan - Dan K. Kyhl Advisory I/T Specialist IBM Global

DLLs that can be used with MS C++

2002-02-20 Thread Miodrag Dimitrijevic
Hello, I managed to make an dll under cygwin and link it with a program, but everything works only within Cygwin. Is it possible to make a dll and .lib file which can be used under pure windows (e.g. to make .dll and .lib and link them to MS VC++ application)? Thanks in advance. Regards, Miodra
