Does anyone know if the gnu C++ compiler/linker can link with a library
produced with Visual C++?
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Lee,
That is not likely to work. C++ compilers use different
name mangling schemes to prevent accidental linkage of
incompatible object code. You have to be very careful,
if you really want to do that sort of thing. You might
be able to cross link C with C++ code.
Yours sincerely,
Bjorn

Linklng C++ code? No, you can't. Think for a moment on virtual calls,
exceptions and other implementation-dependent machinery and you will
understand why.
