Error message when running boblight-constant.exe on Windowws 7

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Compile boblight via Cygwin
2. Put all required cygwin dll files in the same directory as 
boblight-constant.exe
3. Have boblightd.exe running (XBMC plugin working fine)
4. Run boblight-constant.exe FF0000

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
No lights are turned on, instead just an error message.
c:\Boblight\new>boblight-constant.exe FF0000
ERROR: No such file or directory

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Rev 416, Windows 7, 32Bit

Change boblight.h to make it load libboblight.dll, and put that file in the 
same directory as boblight-constant.exe

By libboblight.dll, I assume that you mean 
http://mirrors.xbmc.org/build-deps/addon-deps/binaries/libboblight/win32/libbobl
ight-win32.0.dll.zip.
I also assumed that the functions I need to link to in the dll files are all 
functions listed in boblight-functions.h. 
I have mangaged to compile boblight-constant based on these assumptions, but I 
still get the same error.
I use dll load meathod described here: 
http://www.codeguru.com/cpp/cpp/cpp_mfc/tutorials/article.php/c9855 to not have 
to have the libboblight.h file.
Have I made the correct assumptions?

I have tried a bit more to get it to work, but since I don't know enough about 
C/C++ I can't get it to work.

I have no idea either, sorry.

I did that too, getting:

( ! NOT ! ERROR: No such file or directory)
