Hi,

We've been running against the pre-built (we didn't build the server) 5.1.3=
9 build of mysql with a dynamic plugin that we wrote.  We now find that we'=
d like to honor a few settings that are in global variables (as seen by "SH=
OW VARIABLES") from within our plugin.   I cannot find definitive informati=
on on how to accomplish this on win32.

The best I've been able to figure out is that I need to use MYSQL_PLUGIN_IM=
PORT  which amounts to a __declspec(dllimport) on windows.  The problem is =
that the 5.1.39 release does not include an import library so there's no wa=
y to link our plugin DLL.  Has anyone else dealt with this or are we in new=
 territory?
