I think you can just do:

LIB /DEF:libpqdll.def

Haven't tested it, though.

(If you don't have the def file, you can do "dumpbin /exports <file>" to get
a listing of them.)

I've made the dll's(libpq.dll libpgtcl.dll) under pgaccess/win32
by Constantin's request. Could someone make them instead
from now ? I've used them little myself and would lose VC++
environmemt in the near future.

Should'nt we use MingW32 instead of VC++ ?
