[LLVMdev] Compile dll on Mingw

[NAKAMURA Takumi]

Good evening, Yuan

Excuse me, I gave up Debug build earlier due to my poor hosts.
I will improve able to build Debug ;)

You may build with --enable-optimized=yes
(or, make ENABLE_OPTIMIZED=1)

btw, DLL builder has implemented since Aug.
It might be easier to port DLL stuff to 2.6 :) Do you try?
