#1 using exports from a .so from aWin32 app

[Wade Rasmussen]

Just thinking it would be cool to be able to call
functions in a native Linux .so library from withing a
win32(cygwin?) app. The company I work for makes
library that is used by an Apache module under Linux.
The Apache module code is open but the library code is
closed and the library only available for Linux. What
I am interested in doing is compiling the module for
Apache Win32 and somehow still use the native
Linux .so library as the company will not provide me a
Win32 version. If this is possible already, then how
would I go about making a call to a native Linux .so
library.
