Both.

But when compiling for windows you must link the driver in statically.


Short Howto Linux:

I prefer to load the .so via System.load("/path/to/libMS_SQL_2000.so");

Short Howto Windows:

instead of using the .so dynamic library you take all the .o object
files and link then into your app. This works for me.

I have an app running for the past week on a WinXP machine that accesses
a MS SQL database. Works just fine.

Does the makefile work in mingw? I haven't tried it myself...
I'm crosscompiling from linux.
