[Mono-dev] Mono embedding on win32

Hi,

I've had some requests to ship a .lib file in the windows installer in
order to embed the mono runtime on windows.

I found this information:

http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2006-01/msg00667.html

We're already shipping libmono.dll.a .  (I do run strip --strip-unneeded
on it, although I'm not sure that affects it.)  According to the above
post, it appears that the .dll.a can be renamed to a .lib file.

What else is missing?  Is the above for static importing only?  How is
the dynamic import lib generated?

Is anyone embedding Mono on win32.  If so, care to provide some details,
and what possible changes are needed in the installer?

Wade
