Hello,
I'm aware this question has been asked before (I googled), but found no
satisfactory answer. I've just compiled a Unix library (to *.a) in
Cygwin and I would like to convert it into a .lib file that I can link
with the Visual Studio toolchain.
If you compiled it as a static lib and with "-mno-cygwin" (i.e. you used
the MinGW compiler to avoid pulling in cygwin1.dll), just rename it or use
it directly. Otherwise, see:
