Cross compiling DLL

[Michael Luich]

Hello Everyone,

I'm trying to build a plugin by cross compiling from linux to windows
using mingw. The Linux version compiles and works, and the Windows
version compiles but gives me errors when it tries to load. I made a
test dll with the same code for the windows dll and it loaded fine
(errored missing purple_init)plugin) which leads me to believe my
windows dll stuff is correct.

Does anyone have any ideas? any way I can troubleshoot this?

Error:
C:\Program Files\Pidgin\plugins\srencrypt.dll is not loadable: %1 is
not a valid Win32 application.


Windows dll code:
#ifdef BUILD_DLL
/* DLL export */
#define EXPORT __declspec(dllexport)
#else
/* EXE import */
#define EXPORT __declspec(dllimport)
#endif
