OK, as I thought.  The problem is not the import library
(the .a you created has the same format as the .lib so there's
no benefit to creating the .a).  You need to find out if the 
function you're trying to link to is in that library and what
it's name is.  Run 'nm' on the library and grep the results for
your function.  If there's a function in the results that has the 
right name but has different stuff appended to the front and/or
back, the include file you're using isn't giving you the right
calling convention (cdecl, stdcall, fastcall).  This is likely 
the problem.

During linking it gives me "enresolved external"
