Looking into other project i'm on which have to deal with differences between linux/unix and windows solved the API import export stuff by providing an API headerfile which looks like as follows -----------------------snip------------------------- #ifndef ASPELL_WIN_DLL_API_H #define ASPELL_WIN_DLL_API_H #ifdef _WIN32 # ifdef ASPELL_EXPORTS # define ASPELL_API __declspec(dllexport) # else # define ASPELL_API __declspec(dllimport) # endif #else # define ASPELL_API #endif #endif ------------------------snip----------------------------- This file is included by all header files directly contributing to the API and the class and function definitions which are part of the API look like as follows. class ASPELL_API classname : ..... ASPELL_API void somemfunc This solution would imho be the easiest to implement within automatic generation as the api code generator only has to properly add the ASPELL_API macro to the entire function and class definitions. And in addition to that the above AspellAPI has to be generated. Which can be hardcoded. The only thing to determine is if it suffices to define the ASPELL_API macro only if aspell itself is built or not or more logic it would be to define it unless aspell is built when looking at __declspec(import) and __declspec(export)? cu Xris _______________________________________________ Aspell-devel mailing list Aspell-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/aspell-devel
