You'll need to recompile it in the windows environment. Do you have a compiler for windows?

yes , i have. but the package in the linux system is very complex, it is not a single file, it has very complex makefile.
then how should i do?
regards

Your going to have to port the project. This likely means re-writing the makefile and might even require redoing some of the source code itself.

Linux binaries and shared libraries are built in an entirely different format them Windows.
