Waynes-a-dummy question:
Can you link a library that way in GCC? Have your tried linking the library from your command line?

I suppose so. For test that and to asseverate that all the #include's are working I tried the following code that worked fine. I am using MinGW-2.0 package that contains GCC-3.2, binutils-1.3, gdb-5.1.1 and make-3.79.1, mingw-runtime-2.2 and w32api-2.0.
--------------------------------------- #include <stdio.h> #include <winsock2.h> #include <windows.h> #include <process.h> #include <string.h> #include <winbase.h> #pragma comment(lib,"ws2_32")
void main(int argc,char ** argv)
{
printf ("Hello\n");
}
------------------------------------------When I enter the full code with calls to the entry-points (WSAStartup, Sockt, etc.) I got the errors.
Looking at some GCC documentation I understood that GCC does all the job (preprocessing, compiling and linking). By use the command line to link the library do you mean use the 'ld' command?
