+.lib & .def files to link an MSVC project against the standard DLL build with BCB.
+
+Please note that this version is created for libmng 1.0.5, but should work with
+1.0.6 as there were no API changes between the two versions.
+
+These files are courtesy of Alex Volkov. Here's what he had to say about it:
+
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+That reminds me, I remade the MSVC libmng.lib for linking to the
+bcb-generated dll. The .lib and its corresponding .def are attached. The
+.def I generated by simply dumping all the exports from the bcb .dll and
+later added the .def to the contrib/msvc/win32dll project. The .def is
+necessary for MSVC to name the imports correctly, otherwise it produces
+mangled symbol names. What is ironic is that it is not necessary to
+completely build the dll with msvc -- you need just the resulting .lib --
+but you still have to setup the entire project for building the dll because of
+the stdcall calling convention. The resulting .lib is not perfect -- the hints
+are all off, of course -- but it does the job. In any case, the win32 exes
+linked with the attached .lib in fact work with bcb-generated dll just fine. I
+know the building process can be somehow automated, but I have not had the time
+to work on that, and for me it was a one-shot deal.
+
+Alex.
