I think this could be part of a general section about building your external (a short intro to pd-lib-builder + instructions for MSVC). when the semester is over, I'll do a PR with some other additions which IOhannes can cherrypick.

I'm glad it works. Again, this is all thanks to Christof and Lucarda's work over the winter for the Windows builds.  Christof, if you have a chance, could you add this info to the externals-howto readme, if it's not already there? https://github.com/pure-data/externals-howto

I didn't define the exported function manually at linking time (using /export with the cl) but directly in the C file using PD_INTERNAL because the approach is similar to the one presented in the MSCV documentation to create dll ( https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms235636.aspx%5Bhttps://msdn.micros...]) and it worked pretty well until now...
