Subject: Re: No output from an executable when linked to a dll (both executable and dll build by me)

I did some debugging regarding the issue I had and next following some results.

TL;DR: Giving executable permissions to the library, fixed the issue.

So when I execute the binary file ./MQTTAsync_publish.exe, it
terminates with exit code 127

$ ./MQTTAsync_publish.exe
$ echo $?
127

I tried to use gdb in order to see if I could find more info regarding
this problems. Using gdb I got the following

$ gdb ./MQTTAsync_publish.exe

(gdb)

It seems that the program it's exiting with code 0xc0000022 before
main. I just quickly googled this error and came across with [this
issue](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15911018/why-is-my-program-crashing-before-it-starts)
which is a similar problem. I tried the [second
answer](http://stackoverflow.com/a/27105757/619410), gave executable
permissions to the library. During installation of the library, the
makefile gave 0644(read/write) permissions only and not executable.
Changing this to 755 (read/write/execute), I was able to run the
./MQTTAsync_publish.exe with no other problems.

Regards,

Stavros
