You say that you cannot link the native functor: do you get any error
message? 

How did you create the dll? Note that there is a version of "oztool"
for Windows in the OZHOME\bin directory (sorry, I know it's not
documented fully yet) which you can call using the option "-gnu" to
both create object files and DLLs.
