[Dev-C++] How to create a DLL and to use a DLL in Dev C++?

[Weijun z. <zhe...@ya...>]

For example:

There are three files:
dllfct.h: 

   #ifdef BUILD_DLL
   // the dll exports
   #define EXPORT __declspec(dllexport)
   #else
   // the exe imports
   #define EXPORT __declspec(dllimport)
   #endif

   // function to be imported/exported
   EXPORT void tstfunc (void);
               

dllfct.c: 

   #include <stdio.h>
   #include "dllfct.h"

   EXPORT void tstfunc (void)
   {
      printf ("Hello\n");
   }
               

hello.c: 

   #include "dllfct.h"
   int main ()
   {
      tstfunc ();
      return (0);
   }
      
In order to compile dllfct.c to make a DLL, 
and compile hello.c to make a EXE to use the DLL,
how can we do these with Dev C++ without use the
following commands?

Commands:         
   gcc -c hello.c
   gcc -c -DBUILD_DLL dllfct.c
   dllwrap --output-lib=libtstdll.a --dllname=tst.dll
--driver-name=gcc dllfct.o
   gcc -o hello.exe hello.o -L./ -ltstdll
               

Thanks.
