Hi, I normally don't have a full Cygwin installation only the tools needed to build wireshark ( flex, bison wget etc ) and no *nix system. As it's possible to build libsmi with the same set of tools e.g not using autogen I thought it useful to do the changes... Regards Anders

ok, currently the makefile in ../lib is not called from there.
I don't see the point. The traditional method is to run configure and make in *nix to generate the stuff that MSVC can't build. cygwin will do for that, so there is no obvious reason to change.
You then "mount" that tree on Windows and run nmake in the win directory.
If I wasn't after a DLL, I'd cross compile with mingw on Linux. I haven't managed to get mingw to produce a DLL.
