Then use dlltool : to create the libsomelib.a file. To avoid manual editing, try (untested): nm --defined-only --demangle somelib.lib|\ (echo EXPORTS;grep ' [DCT] ')>somelib.def Bye, Heribert (dahms AT ifk20 DOT mach DOT uni-karlsruhe DOT de) - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
