Or you can input a .def file to the linker with the name of the symbols to export. Unlike "-shared" on *nix, the linker does not export entrypoints unless told to do so. The above command should yield the .dll and the .lib import library. If you also get a .manifest then you need to attach it to the .dll using the mt command thusly: mt -nologo -manifest SQLite3.dll.manifest -outputresource:SQLite3.dll;2 --- The fact that there's a Highway to Hell but only a Stairway to Heaven says a lot about anticipated traffic volume. _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@mailinglists.sqlite.org http://mailinglists.sqlite.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
