You guessed it, the creation of the zip is done by hand-picking
(so-to-speak) the appropriate files, and copying them in right folder.
It goes a bit like the following patch (untested yet), which screams to
be put into a Makefile.am, and eventually fully autoconfiscated wrt
install dir:
diff --git a/README.release b/README.release

Ditto but with HAMLIB_API set to __stdcall in include/hamlib/rig_dll.h before re-compiling.
BTW, the content of the attached README.txt (!= README) should be yanked
into README.win32 probably, which itself needs to be reworked.
Some files are missing from the git repo.
Rem: the prefix /tmp/mingw-inst/ is not that safe. Maybe it should be
better to relocate it in a subdir of the build dir?
It's been a well packed day, time for me to get my eyes sleeping

This ZIP archive contains the official version of Hamlib 1.2.13-1,
cross-compiled for Win32 using MinGW under Ubuntu/x86 (nice, he!).
The DLL has a cdecl interface.
This material is copyrighted. The license is LGPL, and it comes
WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY. See LICENSE.txt and COPYING.LIB.txt files.
Make sure *all* the .DLL are in your PATH, and you have read
the README.betatester file, especially the "testing Hamlib" section.
See README_VB.txt for how to use the wrapper file for VisualBasic.
Note: you must use the stdcall release for use with VisualBasic.
There's a .LIB import library for MS-VC++ in lib/msvc.
Simply #include <hamlib/rig.h> (add directory to include path),
include the .LIB in your project and you're done.
Note: MS-VC++ cannot compile all the Hamlib code, but the API rig.h
has been made MSVC friendly
Patches, feedback, and contributions are welcome.
Please report problems, success to hamlib-developer <at> lists.sourceforge.net

This file originates from a mail by Michael Benz who did the work.
It explains how to proceed to have the VB Wrapper used with
VB.NET 2002 with Framework 1.1 (others not tested)
In the newer VB Modules (.BAS) don't exist anymore. So they were replaced by the
Classes (.VB)
The Wrapper is not in final Condition, many DLL Function are still not covered now,
but it will be a good start.
To Import the "Wrapper" use the Folder "Project" and "Import existing Element"
Now import the Class "Hamlib.VB". It alsough seems to import into Sharpdevelop,
so anybody can try it out for free!
http://www.icsharpcode.net/OpenSource/SD/Default.aspx
This Class contains Your Enumeration as well as the DLLImport to get Access to the
Hamlib DLL.
Covered are:
- Init Rig with Comport and Speed
- set/ get Frequency
- set/get Mode
- set/get VFO
- get Riginfo
-rig_debug_level_e not verified (Function is Void, VB Dokumentation
sais this is not possible to be marshaled, but Compiler is still accapting this)
To get access to the Class you have to add something like this in your Main Class
Dim RigLib As RigControll = New RigControll 'get Acces to RigLib Klass
here is an Example how to use the Class:
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
'Dim tokenlookup As String = "rig_pathname"
'Dim tokenlookup As Object = "serial_speed"
'Dim Info As String
Dim Frequenz As Double
Dim ZeichenOut As String
Dim TokenPointer As System.Int32
Dim VFO As Integer
Dim Mode As RigControll.RMode_t
Dim Bandbreite As Long
' Dim RigLib As RigControll = New RigControll
Button3.Enabled() = True
Button2.Enabled() = False
RigLib.rig_set_debug(RigControll.rig_debug_level_e.RIG_DEBUG_TRACE)
myrig = RigLib.rig_init(RigNumber.Text)
TBmyrig.Text = myrig.ToString 'convert myrig to String
TokenPointer = RigLib.rig_token_lookup(myrig, "rig_pathname")
TBZeichen.Text = RigLib.rig_set_conf(myrig, TokenPointer, ComboBox2.Text)
Token.Text = TokenPointer
TokenPointer = RigLib.rig_token_lookup(myrig, "serial_speed")
TBZeichen.Text = RigLib.rig_set_conf(myrig, TokenPointer, ComboBox3.Text)
Token.Text = TokenPointer
RigLib.rig_open(myrig)
TB_Riginfo.Text = RigLib.rig_get_info(myrig)
RigLib.rig_get_vfo(myrig, VFO)
TextBox8.Text = VFO.ToString
RigLib.rig_get_freq(myrig, VFO, Frequenz)
TextBox2.Text() = Frequenz
RigLib.rig_get_mode(myrig, VFO, Mode, Bandbreite)
TextBox3.Text = [Enum].GetName(GetType(RigControll.RMode_t), Mode)
TextBox4.Text = Bandbreite
End Sub
