Re: cygwin gcc user library question

Thanks Chris, I used your suggestion and the following are the commands and
messages:
bash-2.02$ gcc c/samples/amqsput0.c lib/mqm.Lib -I ./c/include
//d/CYGWIN~1/H-I586~1/i586-cygwin32/bin/ld: lib/mqm.Lib(MQM.dll): warning:

Then when I tried to run a.exe, I got the following:
The procedure entry point could not be located in the dynamic link library
MQM.dll.

Am I missing something here? Thanks
