3rdparty library

Hi and welcome
If this 3rdparty library is a DLL, then it must ALSO be compiled with mingw492_32.
You cannot link dlls compiled with one compiler to another compiler.
You will have to rebuild the DLL with your compiler. (mingw)

Often supplied DLLS are for a version of visual studio.

So please check if the DLLS are indeed for mingw :)
