How can I link to a dll directly? It is a dynamic library so as far as I know there is nothing the linker could do here. Under Unix the search order for dynamic libraries may be given via the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH. I dont know how things work under windows/cygwin. > It could also be a problem with the link stage.

The package does not come with a makefile for cygwin. But there is a README for cygwin and there is a generic Unix makefile with lots of comments on what to change for cygwin. Thus I copied that Unix makefile and made the necessary adjustments in within the copy. > Or is it just the one that the project came with or autogenerated using > configure or some similar script? It is an old package. No "configure". You have to do necessary adjustments directly in the makefile. Hans -- Psssst! Schon vom neuen GMX MultiMessenger gehört?
