I am trying to build a DLL using MinGW for Windows. I know that by default building using MinGW introduces a dependency on msvcrt.dll that ships with Windows. However, I want my DLL not to have a dependency on msvcrt.dll. Instead I want my DLL's C Runtime dependency to be satisfied using the msvcr110.dll (the Visual Studio 2012 CRT).
The reason why I need to do this is because the source code I am trying to build uses some C99 features that are not available in the VC11 compiler so it has to be built using MinGW. At the same time a DLL having a dependency on msvcrt.dll is disallowed in a Windows 8 Store application (which is what I am trying to build). Instead if a DLL has a dependency on msvcr110.dll, it is allowed in Windows Store.
So my only option is to build using MinGW but still link to msvcr110.dll.
How can I achieve this?
