[Libvisual-devel] Making DLLs using mingw

[Dennis S. <sy...@yo...>]

Heya reading the mingw docs, I keep across this:

http://mingw.sourceforge.net/docs.shtml


Here's an example. Cut and paste the following into a file named
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);
               

Cut and paste the following into a file named dllfct.c: 

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

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




This makes me nearly sick :), is there a way to get around this ?, because
this would be a complete disaster within libvisual :)
