I don't think so, but it's up to you.

DJGPP is a DOS compiler, so it doesn't do DLL's and thus your question
is off-topic in this newsgroup - which wouldn't keep me from answering
it if I knew how.
Anyway, there must be a newsgroup out there where they answer
questions of this sort. (But don't try comp.lang.c++ as it's also
off-topic there).
