Here is what I got so far trying to link.
[atoch@linux00 code]$ gcc -lm -ldl -L/usr/src/wine/dlls -L. -L/usr/src/wine
-lwine -lncurses -lutil chli.dll test.o -o test
chli.dll: file not recognized: File format not recognized
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
[atoch@linux00 code]$ gcc -lm -ldl -L/usr/src/wine/dlls -L. -L/usr/src/wine
-lwine
-lncurses -lutil chli.lib test.o -o test
test.o: In function `main':
test.o(.text+0x15): undefined reference to `cfmini'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
=== test.c ====
#include "hli.h"
int main(void)
{
int status = 0;
cfmini(&status);
return status ;
}

Unfortunately, the part of HOWTO-winelib on DLLs is still incomplete. I
submited a patch yesterday, but there were some (legitimate) objections to
the
size of the files I submitted as examples. I withdrew the patch this
morning.
Also, you refer to the library as .lib in the subject line.
Is this a static library? I don't know of any way to link a static library
into
WineLib. Depending on how the library is to interact with your application,
you
may be able to wrap the static library into a dynamic library and use
WineLib.
If you don't mind large emails, send me a private email and I can give you
the
examples and the most recent version of the HOWTO-winelib.
