mixing gnu-win32 and msvc++ objects

Wed Jul 16 01:52:00 GMT 1997

Hi,
I have to port some tools from unix to nt. Some of these tools (gui and daemons) 
use 3rd-party libraries which requires the use of MSVC++. Because I am a newbie 
using nt and gnu-win32 I have some questions about using gnu-win32 together with 
MSVC++.
1. Can I mix objects created by gcc and MSVC++ into one library (using ar.exe) ?
2. Which linker (ld or link) will be the best to create programs from both
 gnu-win32's gcc and MS's cl objects / libraries ?
3. Where can I find a good documentation for the use of gnu-win32 ?
4. Are there any reasons to use version b17 instead of b18 ?
I hope my questions are basic ones and someone having experience mixing objects
created by gnu-win32 and MSVC++ can help me finding a reasonable way doing this.
Regards,
Thomas
