iam compiling a vc++ workspace by importing it in to dev c++.That imported project depends on a DLL file...when i compile that project in dev c++ it says that [Linker error] undefined reference to `_gst_debug_category_new' ....
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
You need to link to program to the .lib file that has the dll functions. You should have this file from the vc++ project. In the vc++ project file you should have a link to the library directory and the option -lxxxxx (xxxxx is a .lib filename). If you need additional help, post the vc++ project file and your dev-cpp compile log.

You need to explicitly link the DLLs export library. However Microsoft export libraries are not compatible with MinGW/GCC. They can be converted with a utility called reimp.exe
