Yes, calling LoadLibrary() and GetProcAddress() is not hard. The tricky 
part is that all gpgme AND gpg_error functions should be converted into 
function pointers. I'm using SWIG to do all the dirty work for me but 
haven't found a way to do that particular one.

And just to be clear - I agree that a language wrapper should not 
include gpgme DLLs in its distribution but use the installed one 
instead. So, the main question is how such wrapper should find these 
DLLs. My wrapper (not sure about others) bases its implementation on 
gpgme.h header file and if there were a macro for Windows to locate the 
library - that would be the most welcome solution. :o)

Cheers,
