To be a bit more precise.
I'm building an extension for the Tcl language. Extensions are in fact dynmaic libraries.which are loaded in the Tcl language when required. So when loading my .dll lib created as I mentioned, I got the message :
couldn't load library "o:/ordali/lib/tclcluspack
0.1/tclcluspack0.1.dll": this library or a depen
dent library could not be found in library path
while executing
"load o:/ordali/lib/tclcluspack0.1/tclcluspack0.
1.dll tclcluspack"
The dll is present, and at the right place. Thus, loading it directly in the interpreter results in the same error.
A point to mention is that the size of the dll seeems to be correct, as the sum of the libRmath.a + objects.
Maybe this helps ...

I don't know what is wrong, but I can tell you that you are much more
likely to get help if you tell us the exact error message.
