Greetings,
I spent a long time looking, and couldn't find this answered. If it has been, please send me a pointer to where to look.
My problem:
I have an existing (X/lesstif) application which compiles and runs under cygwin (gcc).
I have some new functionality which I need to add to this application which is provided in some type libraries (.tlb).
When I try to compile this under cygwin, I get errors about the type libraries being invalid. The type libraries do, however, compile under MSVC++. I gather from this that cygwin has a different format for type libraries than MSVC++.
So....since I can compile the type libraries under MSVC++, can I: Use MSVC++ with the cygwin libraries? (ie, libXt, libXm, libX11, etc)?
Or, is there a way to convert the type libraries into a form cygwin's gcc
can digest?
thanks! tim
