The directory containing agtctl_i.c has to be in the include path, not the
lib path.
But, you are doing this all wrong if you are trying to compile using any
MinGW files. This finally explains to me all the weird errors you are
always getting when you try to compile.
You need to compile using a Microsoft Visual C++ compiler and a Microsoft
Windows SDK. Both of which are free if you use the express version of the
compiler. We don't support MinGW.
You need to set up a build environment that is using only the VC++ and MS
Windows SDK files. If anything points to MinGW files you are likely to
have problems.
On my system agtctl_i.c is in the include directory of the 7.1 SDK:
Directory of C:\Tools\Microsoft.SDKs\v7.1\Include
04/19/2010 08:43 PM 3,835 AgtCtl_i.c
If your compile doesn't find it, then your build environment is not set up
correctly.
