How to compile c to dll

[aze]

Hi,

I am by no means a c programmer... far too difficult a language for the
likes of me :-)

I have a 2 c files (pdfp.c, PrinterUtils.c) and 1 .h file
(PrinterUtils.h) and 1 .mak file (pdfp.mak). What I need to do is
compile these files into a dll so I can use them in my asp.net
application.

Does anyone have any idea how I can compile these files into a dll??

Thanks in advance for any help at all.

Justin

You posted this 30 minutes ago under a different title. Usenet is not

Presumably from what you have said you are doing this on Microsoft Windows.
You would be better addressing this to
comp.os.ms-windows.programmer.win32
If you are lucky then it is as simple as:
1. Open a "Command Prompt" window
2. Change directory to where the three files are stored.
3. Type "nmake -f pdfp.mak"

If you are unlucky then ask there.

Use a compilation system that supports whatever sort of file the .mak
file is.

Thanks in advance for any help at all.

I suggest asking where ever you got the files from. We deal with
standard C here, not the vagaries of every implementation or identifying
which of the many implementations a given set of files were written for.

You'll need a compiler that compiles your c files and a linker that
will be able to link the object files the compiler produces.

Thanks in advance for any help at all.

The rest is off topic on this group. Go to a programming roup that
handles your OS.
