Hi all,

I am developer on Windows Platform, and I want to port my Windows DLL into FreeBSD LiB/DLL. I don't know whether LIB or DLL supportable on FreeBSD Platform.


Please let me know how is it possible to make Lib/DLL for FreeBSD on Windows Platform.


Thanks

DLLs are primarily a windows thing. It's done slightly different on *nix but the principles are the same.

See rtld(1) for instance.

I'm sure it's possible but I have no idea how to do this on Windows.
 
It could be possible with cross-compilation, but quick google reveals no results with Windows host (gcc/mingw) and FreeBSD target. The easiest way would be to install a FreeBSD virtual machine under VirtualBox and do a native build. Of course, first step would be to port your code to FreeBSD. Interfaces are completely different - you'll have less work if you have clean separation between interfaces and logic in your code.
