Hi Corina just figured out that a .def file in a dll may export function from a dll that is referenced in the compilation stage like this:
gcc file.c external.dll def.def -o out.dll if in the def.def it has a function that is in the file.c and also available in external.dll it may generate an invalid out.dll I don't know but this looks like a problem in gcc that need to be fixed, spend one hour modifying my function in file.c and it was linking with external.dll then I commented the function inside file.c and saw the compilation stage finished without a link error if it is a GCC feature then a warning about expernal DLL linkage could help a lot when the function exported is inside an external DLL hope to have explained it in an easy way Ricardo -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
