I am very new to dlls. I followed the instructions on the cygwin site to 
create a simple dll. It worked perfectly. I wrote a very simple function 
that took a pointer to an integer and added 1 to it. The calling function 
was able to get the modified value. However, when I tried to do strcpy to 
char*, it gives me a segmentation fault. I did malloc space for it before 
passing it to the dll function.

While trying different things, I also did a malloc inside the dll function. 
It seems I can't do any memory operations inside the dll function. I am sure 
there are many experienced people who would be able to help.

Thanks!
BB
