Wow, thanks. At first I could not see how one could use external 3rd party or standard libraries (but probably each compiler comes with it's own standard template lib hum?) if all the libs where not compatible. But I guess they construct a "C thunk barrier" (humm, first time hearing about this). LOoks like I need to compile al witht he same compiler. Thanks!!!
