Re: [Gnuwin32-users] RE: Using GSL with Borland C++

["Kees Zeelenberg" <kzlg at users dot sourceforge dot net>]

The Gnuwin32 port of GSL has import libraries for Borland
(they have extension -bcc.lib). They have been created from the DLL with
the Borland program implib.exe. What probably doesn't work is the use of 
constants from the DLL; I suppose that it could be made to work by adding 
declspec(dllimport) to the declaration of the constants when using the DLL 
(cf .http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/compile.html). 
So far I haven't tried this myself, since I am using GCC.

The remark that the Gnuwin32 DLL's don't work, might create confusion.
They are normal DLL's that can be accessed by any application. 
The problems are not with the DLL's but with the Borland import library. 
Moreover, the GCC import library works quite well.
