Subject: Ruby c extensions on windows

Hey guys,
I have a ruby extension I have written in c++, and I am using Windows.
My code successfully compiles to a .dll, and I put it in the folder
where all the other compiled extensions for ruby are (they are
included with ruby, like socket.so, etc), and requiring it in ruby
does not work. Is this because ruby does not work with dlls, and you
have to have a .so file? If so, how can I turn my code into a .so?
