openldap-devel-2.2.17-2

Thanks much. I got the header files but have run into another problem. I upgraded the old umich files to the new cygwin dlls and header files but I get a linker error for all of the LDAP functions that have been called.

unresolved external symbol _ldap_value_free
unresolved external symbol _ldap_next_attribute
unresolved external symbol _ldap_get_values
unresolved external symbol _ldap_first_attribute
unresolved external symbol _ldap_search
unresolved external symbol _ldap_abandon
unresolved external symbol _ldap_bind
unresolved external symbol _ldap_open
unresolved external symbol _ldap_unbind_s
unresolved external symbol _ldap_result

BTW I am using Visual Studio 6.

Basically I generated lib files for each of the dlls and linked to the lib files using

Project Settings -> Link -> Object/Library modules.

Moreover when I use depends, I can see the unresolved functions in the dlls. Is the problem related to name mangling? Please help.

TIA
