Subject: Re: Dynamically load a shared lib created using gcc/Cygwin
From: "Yu-Cheng Chou" <cycchou@ucdavis.edu>


mylib.dll was created using gcc/cygwin based on some libraries that were 
also built using gcc/cygwin and CANNOT be re-built by other compilers.
I have to, and need only to load mylib.dll at run-time by function 
LoadLibrary("mylib.dll") 
in an applicaiton that was built by Visual C++ or .NET.
When I ran this application in Windows XP, it hung at LoadLibrary
("mylib.dll").

Sorry about bothering you again
