RE: [ROOT] root dictionaries in .NET

Hi John,

Indeed you have a problem with confusion of .lib and .dll
Here is the revelant extra for $ROOTSYS/test/Makefile.win32


EVENTLIB      = libEvent.lib

EVENTSO       = libEvent.$(DllSuf)

$(EVENTSO):     $(EVENTO)
                BINDEXPLIB  $* $(EVENTO) > $*.def
                lib -nologo -MACHINE:IX86 $(EVENTO) -def:$*.def $(OutPutOpt)$(EVENTLIB)
                $(LD) $(SOFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) $(EVENTO) $*.exp $(LIBS) $(OutPutOpt)$(EVENTSO)
                @echo "$(EVENTSO) done"

Note in particular that the argument in the lib command line is libEvent.lib

Cheers,
Philippe.

Hi everyone,

Using the Makefile technique, I was able to build my .lib library:

...etc.

Unfortunately, now I am trying to link my .dll, which uses the classes 
from the .lib and I get a fatal error that the .lib is "invalid or 
corrupt".   I think it is because I don't quite understand the 
difference between a .dll and a .lib in Windows, and I'm making a single 
file that is a little bit of both...

At risk of wearing out people's patience, I include below the 
Makefile.win32 I'm using.  Perhaps a quick look from experienced eyes 
will reveal my mistakes. 

    - John
