Concerning the discussion on the WinMainCRTStartup-warning:

I get the same warning with gcc, but all the programs (seem to) work. 
 
> g++ -o test.exe test.cpp -luser32 (works fine no warnings)
> g++ -o test.exe test.cpp -luser32 -Wl,--subsystem,windows (works but
gives

My solution is:

Replace the -Wl option by

      -Wl,--subsystem,windows,-e,mainCRTStartup

and you don't see the warning anymore.


Offhand, I don't know why you're getting the DLL message.
