I keep forgetting it can do that these days :(

Perhaps it's time that OP explain exactly /what/ the problem is; I did
assume that a straightforward "-lfoo" must already have not worked in some
way. Mani?
=================================================
Hi,
Yes, I am not able to link directly sybase .dll in g++ compiler in cygwin.
I have created .def file with help of dumpbin command. I have
modified the .def file.
My .def file will be
EXPORTS
JagCppProcess_main
delete_JagCppProcess
new_JagCppProcess
new_JagSIOPStream
With help of dlltool command i have created .a file also. Now i can
able to link and
i got the EXE also. But while running the exe, i got the error message
_cygtls::handle_exceptions: Exception: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION
I want to clarify the following things
(i) Can i use dumpbin to get the .def file?
(ii) Why the exception thrown ?
But when i run the same sample code arith.cpp in windows
environment, i am getting the result.
