[Mingw-users] MinGW bin versus Linux bin format

[Jean-Paul P. <jea...@or...>]

Dear all,

 

I intend to use a native linux library (*.a +*.h for which I do not have the C source code) with a Windows MinGW project.

 

The link phase of GCC doesn't work and reports "undifined symbols".

When comparing linux and wingw object codes with "nm" utility, I observe that linux function names have no underscore prefix while mingw's do.

 

Couldn't find the right MinGW calling convention specification (I tried cdecl, stdcall) to remove expected underscores.

 

Is it possible to perform such heterogeneous linkage ? If yes, how ?

 

Many thanks in advance

 

Jean-Paul
