Re: Gtk-Perl on cygwin?

According to the docs for dlltool, and to what information
I can find (and digest) online, you can't create a Windows
program that references undefined symbols in a dll.

So, there are two stages to linking to the dll:

  1) you create an implib (import library) from the dll
  2) you link this implib into your executable.
