RE: New Problem with DLL/MinGW

I did as you told me and I seem to get the mysqlpp.dll to compile but I 
can't seem to get mysqlpp.a to compile at all. I get the following error 
after adding the linker you recommend

g++ -shared -o mysqlpp.dll --out-implib=mysqlpp.a  debug/coldata.o 
debug/connect
ion.o debug/datetime.o debug/field_names.o debug/field_types.o 
debug/fields.o de
bug/manip.o debug/myset.o debug/qparms.o debug/query.o debug/result.o 
debug/row.
o debug/sql_string.o debug/string_util.o debug/type_info.o debug/vallist.o  
-Lc:
\mysql\lib\gcc -lmysqlclient
del /q "..\examples\debug\"*.exe
Could Not Find C:\mysql++\examples\debug\*.exe
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `mysqlpp.a', needed by `all'.  Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `C:/mysql++/lib'
make: *** [all] Error 2

Death,
        This error means it's not generating the import library for the
mysqlpp library (which is used in programs that use the DLL to let them know
what's in the DLL, I think).  You should be able to add the following flag
to your linker flags and it will build the import library for you as it
builds the dll.

--out-implib=mysqlpp.a

Please let us know if you get it working in MinGW with a DLL, we've all
tried and given up.

Well I seem to have compiled the DLL fine but then this pops up at the end
of the compilation.

del /q "..\examples\debug\"*.exe
Could Not Find C:\mysql++\examples\debug\*.exe
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `mysqlpp.a', needed by `all'.  Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `C:/mysql++/lib'
make: *** [all] Error 2

Any ideas of what this means or how to fix it?
