Hi Brian,
Don't know if you noticed, but the thread you are referring to was started by me as well :) All the material discussed in there I managed to apply just fine.
However, that thread deals with importing *functions*, not variables. I created a stand-alone test in which the plugin is trying to reference a *variable* in the loading program, and that *fails*.
I can post my test program if anybody is interested...

suppose I have application A, that loads (gmodule_open) a module B. 'A' contains a variable:
A.c: G_MODULE_EXPORT int var = 1;
B refers to that variable:
B.c: G_MODULE_IMPORT int var;
B is linked with a A.def file:
A.def: IMPORTS var = A.exe.var
When I use 'var' in B, it has a completely wrong value.
Can the windows linker resolve references to external variables when loading a library with gmodule_open/dlopen?
