DLL's ; Import libs ; def files etc ..

 Hi,
Although I saw a lot of problems on this list that look very like mine,
I didn't find a solution.
I have a database program, distributed as an DLL.
The distribution contains also import libraries for
the Borland compiler and the Microsoft compiler.
On top of that it even contains a .DEF file, however with
following constructs in it :
EXPORTS
 _SQLAllocConnect@8
 _SQLAllocConnect = _SQLAllocConnect@8
I created a 'cygnus' def file with the usual manipulations out of
the FAQ.
The problem is that my program generates _SQLAllocConnect@8 calls,
which are linked correctly with the lib generated via dlltool.
The DLL however seems to expect an _SQLAllocConnect call ...
Now I 'solved' the problem by compiling via assembler and change
all _SQL...@.. calls by _SQL... calss. Which seems to work.
I'm pretty sure that there are better solutions. Someone a hint ?
Thanks
Jos
