Dear list readers,

we want to use the zookeeper C bindings with our applications. Some of them=
 are running on Linux (e.g. Load Balancer) and others (.NET(C#) Audio Serve=
rs) on Windows Server 2008.
We'd like to try using cygwin to accomplish this task on windows, but we ne=
ed further advice on how to do that.

What we did so far:

1) downloaded latest cygwin
2) ran ./configure
3) ran make
4) ran make install=09


Now we find some files (libzookeeper_mt.a, libzookeeper_mt.dll.a, libzookee=
per_mt.la, libzookeeper_st.a, libzookeeper_st.dll.a and libzookeeper_st.la)=
 in our cygwin/usr/local/lib folder, but these cannot be used in Visual Stu=
dio.
Is it somehow possible to produce a file that we can then use like a .dll o=
r a .lib ?=20
What do we have to do to accomplish our task? Are we heading in a completel=
y wrong direction?


Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you in advance!


Best regards
Jan & Jan
