Not really sure where to put this: How to compile U++ library as a DLL? [message #5756]

Hey, is there any way to compile U++ lib as a DLL? I am trying to integrate UPP support into Irrlicht, but I realize it would be cumbersome if I needed to compile the Irrlicht Library together with the UPP lib (and the creators of Irrlicht would probably object to accepting such a massive patch to their code). It would be hence preferable if I could just dll-include Ctrl-Lib, rather than Irrlicht. Btw, where are things like compiler-switches for various packages, assemblies and nests stored?

I am not a big expert here, but I know Tom and Daniel in past used U++ to produce .dll plugins to other systems (e.g. OLE controls, Maya plugins etc.)

The basic thing to do is to alter the main configuration - where you have "GUI" now in the tool bar, click on the "GUI" and then click on the single line with "GUI" in the "Main configuration" dialog until you see a button with ">" arrow. Click that and you should get a dialog where there is switch between "Executable" and "Dynamic library".
