sorry if this is no help at all. I believe there are tools to produce a
.LIB file from a .DLL. I think that is all you should need. Then the
generated SWIG code could be properly linked the the LIB/DLL. Hopefully
that's all it takes, unfortunately you are on your own for figuring out the
DLL to LIB thing.
