From: Mark.Becker@neuroinformatik.ruhr-uni-bochum.de (Mark Becker) Subject: Linking egcs built DLL's with MSVC++?? 19 Aug 1998 00:27:43 -0700 Message-ID: <35D9468A.7F79D2E8.cygnus.gnu-win32@neuroinformatik.ruhr-uni-bochum.de> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: gnu-win32 Hi, a similar kind of question has been asked several times on this list now, but there doesn't seem to be a definitive answer yet: How do I manage to link an egcs-(or gcc) built dll (here: libX11.dll) to a C++-mainprog (compiled with MSVC++-5.0) with the MSVC linker ? - Is it possible at all? If yes, does it also works for C++ objects? - Which steps are necessary? Apparently I first need a .lib-file (here: libX11.lib) which the MSVC++ linker understands; but how do I generate this? When I got the .lib file what else is to be done next? Many thanks to any help on this matter! ciao Mark Becker -- ======================================================================== Mark Becker -- Mark.Becker@neuroinformatik.ruhr-uni-bochum.de Phone: +49-234-x Office:x=700-7988 Secretary:x=700-7997 FAX:x=7094-210 ======================================================================== - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
