I am cross compiling with fpc svn trunk and -Twin32 on i386 Mac OS X to Win32. This works fine, except that {$linklib xxx.dll} says

linklib?

Well, then the linker complains about unresolved symbols.

You have to mention the name of the dll in the procedure declaration:

procedure test; stdcall; external 'dllname';

Does that mean that LoadLibrary and GetProcAddress must be called for all external dll calls ?

No.

Anyway, the "not found" message is confusing. I suggest a clarification in the section about {$linklib} in the Free Pascal Programmer’s Guide that only static libraries can be linked.

That only applies to Windows.
