Hi folks,

	Just had a couple of questions.  Attempting to head off a problem at the pass...

	When using gcc -shared, what is default output (ie. what is expected from gcc -
shared in order to read the .dlls/shared files) by Cygwin?

	Second question:  If g++ -shared is used will the output .dll/shared files be loadable 
and/or useable by Win32 api?

	Finally, I realize that if g++ -shared, if used, is likely going to generate name 
mangled .dlls that can not be read/loaded properly by the win32api.

	Is that still true for Cygwin?

	Thanks,

		Paul G.
