I have tried that, but it doesnt work for some reason. I get a link error 
LNK 2001 saying unresolved external symbol and the name of my function.  
Actually this is easier too. Because If I throw everything inside the plugin 
folder then it is easier to maintain also. There must be something wrong 
with the way Im linking the files in my Makefile. I use the following target 
to compile the .cpp files.:

.cpp.obj:
	cl $(CFLAGS) /D_WIN32_WINNT=0x0500 -Fd.\ -c $<

and then use the OBJECTS target to link all the object obtained from .cpp 
files and my packet-my.c files. and then link them using the following 
command in my makefile:

my.dll my.exp my.lib : $(OBJECTS) $(LINK_PLUGIN_WITH)
	link /dll /out:my.dll $(LDFLAGS) $(OBJECTS) $(LINK_PLUGIN_WITH) \
	$(GLIB_LIBS)

maybe im using the link command in a wrong way because i keep on getting the 
LNK2001 error.

any suggestions?

Thanks
