Re: Using Cygwin compiled libs in Visual Studio

Hello,

Is it possible or recommended to use a Cygwin compiled lib file or dll in Visual studio? The problem is that although I'm doing my development in Visual Studio, a number of the sources I intend to use have Cygwin makefiles but no Visual studio projects.

See:

<http://cygwin.com/faq/faq-nochunks.html#faq.programming.msvcrt-and-cygwin>

You're probably more interested in the MinGW project <mingw.org>.  It
uses MS's CRT, which will likely make your intended melding easier.
