I apologize for this off-topic message, but I am hoping to find someone to
point me in the right direction.
I want to write some code to read data from MS Excel files (not CSV
files). I saw the Apache POI project (Java).
My goal is to access it via C (which I would from Common Lisp and the
foreign function interface & libffi). Naively, I am looking for a DLL that
I can hook into.
I can code rudimentary C, and wrote similar code to interface to National
Instrument's DLL's.
Is such a goal even possible using the MSYS2 tool chain?
I see that Microsoft has the COM, Net, and maybe other platforms, but still
don't understand how to use them nor find a simple Hello-world type example.
My understanding of different compiler platforms (gcc vs MS) is next to
nil. If you reply, I may follow-up with questions for clarification.
Thank you,
Mirko
