Is there any work at all on msvcp60.dll? I haven't seen much mention of it on the lists, and it's not listed on the dll status page. I've found at least one (and heard of more) that require this dll outright, though.
Thoughts?
msvcp60.dll is a C++ dll. It exports all things C++ from msvc such as complex streams and so on. There is no technology to date that will translate MSVC mangling to GCC mangling. So it will be very hard to manage by hand. And even if so. Some class aspects are not the same so in a few places an export symbol will not be enough, and you will need a proxy function. It is on my long range to do list, but long long range. In any way it is not a standard system dll, and Applications that use it are suppose to distribute it with their setup. Unless they do not have a proper MSVC version in which case they are not suppose to use it at all.
