Hi, This is my first post in here. Could some one tell me if I am
right.

-when you write a header file that contains the prototype for many
useful functions, would you call that header file as library? lets
name in myLib.h
-and, if I write all the definitions/implementations for those
functions ( in the header file ) in a seperate .c or .cpp file, would
the resulting compiled file be the object file? lets name this file as
myLib.c or myLib.cpp
-when I compile myLib.c or myLib.cpp, what is the resulting output
file? Would it be a DLL file?

Could some one respond please.

Thanks,
Anil.
