reimp, you can get it at some page of Mumit Khan, search it. It is
either in mingwutils (www.mingw.org). However it is said in
http://jrfonseca.dyndns.org/projects/gnu-win32/software/reimp/index.html
that reimp is for import libraries for dlls. For dll imports too is
pexports at http://www.acc.umu.se/%7Eanorland/gnu-win32/index.html,.
However there are some different thoughts there, I heard you can use the
lib and you cannot. I think it depends on which compiler generated the lib.
If it is MSVC you don't need it except for import libraries for dlls
8some kind of keywords MSVC uses which are not used in mingw), but the
normal static libraries can be used adding to the linker commands the
complete name of the library with extension and without -l prefix, or
you can simply rename the lib and use it as usual: MSVC and mingw use
COFF format for libraries. In the other hand if you created them with
Borland then you'll need a converter, since Borland uses OMF format. But
I don't know about any tool for this conversion.
