OK, well I can't speak to that though I'm glad you found a 
solution that works for you.  I'd be a little concerned about
this unless they're doing something really funky.  Mixing code
expecting one calling convention with that expecting another is 
a recipe for disaster when running the result.  That's why the 
function names look different in the library when using different
calling conventions.  The linker is meant to flag these mismatches.
But if what you have works for you, more power to you.  For anyone
who doesn't have the Borland compiler to use as the linker in this
case, my suggestions should work with the existing Cygwin tools,
though I think it's fair to say that this thread was pretty light
on details of the whole process so there may have been some invalid 
assumptions on my part w.r.t. what Nickolai was actually working 
with.

OK,

I found my way around this problem with libraries. Just linked my program
using Borland compiler. Works fine :)

OK, I'll kill this off-topic thread.  Anyone praying wishing to pray in,
for, with, or to the Hall can meet me Sunday morning.  I'll be the one
holding the collection plate. ;-)

Oh great.  Now the church will be packed.  People will be praying in the
hall.  Or is that praying to the Hall?  :-)
