Binutils will handle .lib as well as .dll libraries so creating import libraries of a different suffix seems meaningless. I forget what the order of search for the library is but .dll.a takes precedence over .a unless -static is used. There may be an issue with c++ libraries which require objects built by the same compiler (including version) to work around those issues you use a wrapper C library to load and make the calls to the c++ methods. -- Earnie ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming The Go Parallel Website, sponsored by Intel and developed in partnership with Slashdot Media, is your hub for all things parallel software development, from weekly thought leadership blogs to news, videos, case studies, tutorials and more.
