this probably implies that the application would compile as a dll?

Does anyone know if there's an example or some hints on how this should 
be done, and if it's known to be possible?

I'm using the Windows API library (source actually) on
dsource.org. See link on the github page. I found it difficult to
find a complete solution to the problem, so I'm going to cross
post in a few places to make it easier to find for others seeking
an answer to the same question.
