Hi W.J., all,

Do the technique displayed on this web-page

make a difference?

That webpage mentions doing something like this for STL instantiations:

    #ifdef EXP_STL
    #    define DECLSPECIFIER __declspec(dllexport)
    #    define EXPIMP_TEMPLATE
    #else
    #    define DECLSPECIFIER __declspec(dllimport)
    #    define EXPIMP_TEMPLATE extern
    #endif

    // Instantiate classes vector<int> and vector<char>
    // This does not create an object. It only forces the generation of all
    // of the members of classes vector<int> and vector<char>. It exports
    // them from the DLL and imports them into the .exe file.
    EXPIMP_TEMPLATE template class DECLSPECIFIER std::vector<int>;
    EXPIMP_TEMPLATE template class DECLSPECIFIER std::vector<char>;
