test2-dynamic
In this directory I use the same source code as test1-static, but
I try to build a shared library instead. To build a shared library
for libmodule1.la, first I add the -rpath variable. This makes libtool
attempt to build shared libraries, but it gives this warning:
libtool: link: warning: undefined symbols not allowed in i686-pc-cygwin shared libraries
Then it proceeds to build only static libraries. So I add -no-undefined to
the link of libmodule1.la. This makes it actually build a shared library.
When it does the libtool install step, I see that these files were installed:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 bryce unknown 668055 Oct 11 02:40 bin/cygmodule1-0.dll
-rw-r--r-- 1 bryce unknown 664 Oct 11 02:40 lib/libmodule1.a
-rw-r--r-- 1 bryce unknown 2946 Oct 11 02:40 lib/libmodule1.dll.a
-rw-r--r-- 1 bryce unknown 728 Oct 11 02:40 lib/libmodule1.la
File types are
bin/cygmodule1-0.dll: MS Windows PE Intel 80386 console DLL
lib/libmodule1.a: current ar archive
lib/libmodule1.dll.a: current ar archive
lib/libmodule1.la: ASCII English text
But, trying to link with this shared library fails.
libtool g++ -Wall -g -o uselib uselib.cc libmodule1.la
g++ -Wall -g -o .libs/uselib uselib.cc .libs/libimp-cygmodule1-0.a -Wl,--rpath -Wl,/home/bryce/plugin-test/test2-dynamic/lib
Warning: resolving _module_name by linking to __imp__module_name (auto-import)

make: *** [uselib] Error 1
Then I finally read about __declspec(dllexport) and __declspec(dllimport).
When compiling the module I add __declspec(dllexport) on data and functions.
When using the module, the prototypes for say __declspec(dllimport).
Now it works!
