MKS is now offering a package of header files and dlls
that permit compilation of Unix software with VS 6.
I only found out about this package a few days ago
so I have no experience with it. MKS offers a 30-day
evaluation of the software on CDROM.

See http://www.mks.com

Subject: Using cygwin to make C++ DLL's to link with MSVC++


> Hi. I have written a big application in a Unix

> it can't find the functions, but in fact they are
> clearly there, dumpbin.exe says - but the mangled
> names are actually different).

> Anybody ever experienced this problem? In the faq
