Compiler Option: -dll
Create a DLL and import library
Syntax
`
-dll
`
Description
The `-dll` compiler option creates a dynamic link library. This creates a DLL under Windows (including the import library), creates a .so under Linux, and a DXE under DOS.
Note: Same as `-dylib`
The intrinsic macro `__FB_OUT_DLL__` is set to non-zero (-1) if the `-dll` option was specified, and set to zero (0) otherwise.
Platform Differences

- On windows, dynamic link library is created with ".dll" file name extension and import library created as "lib<name>.dll.a" file name
- On Linux, dynamic link library is created with ".so" file name extension
- On DOS, dynamic link library is created with ".dxe" file name extension and import library created as "lib<name>_il.a" file name
