I should mention what happened when I tried that: The program linked without problems, and the .exe ended up importing from the DLL, but the import list from that DLL was empty!.. The program of course crashed as soon as it called a function from the DLL as the import stub jumped into thin air. This is something to look out for. (Although I don't know how widespread the belief that one can simply copy a libfoo.dll.a to foo.lib is?) --tml _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
