Hi friends,

In Windows if we create an exe with MSVC6.0 a corresponding ".lib" file is generated. This file can be used for accessing (linking) the classes defined within that exe from some outside libraries (dll).
Now in unix platform (ie, Red Hat Linux), how can we use that technique.

Thanx,
Amit M

No it is not. The lib file is only generated if you create a library project.

In *nix you have to create a shared library. How to do that will depend on your compiler. Here are some tutorials.
