I try to port a C++ framwork to Windows. The framework uses Atlas and LAPack, libxml (with libiconv and zlib) and GiNaC with CLN. Some libs like zlib can I build with the Visual Studio nmake command, but other can be build with configure, make, make install only. I have setup the Cygwin.bat with Visual Studio (the Atlas developer describe this on http://math-atlas.sourceforge.net/errata.html#WinComp) but do I understand it in a correct way, that after setting the environmental variables, I can use the VS compiler under Cygwin? I have installed the gcc, g++, gfortran and make tools under Cygwin and can compile my libraries, but the configure script determine the ld linker. If I have compiled a library under cygwin, can I link the binary in Visual Studio?
