Compilation of pdfium_test failed with shared pdfium library on Windows Win32 with Visual Studio 2010

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Change from static_library into shared_library in pdfium.gyp
2. Add each library dependency into link_settings : libraries and 
AdditionalLibraryDirectories to '$(OutDir)/lib/'
3. Open build/all.sln 
4. Select Release type, Win32 architecture
5. Compile pdfium target
6. Compile pdfium_test target

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

instead of compiled pdfium_test.exe binary file

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Visual Studio 2010
Windows 7 x64

Please provide any additional information below.
After successful compilation of shared library pdfium.dll there is pdfium.lib 
file.
I explored pdfium.lib and it has every symbol, which is required, with correct 
machine X86. Compilation in x64 architecture is working without problem.

You need to define FPDFSDK_EXPORTS in both the pdfium project and the dependent 
projects for the symbols to be exported and imported correctly.

That said, I think you'll run into issues using pdfium as a dll; i'm not sure 
is ready for that yet (and I'm not sure it's headed in that direction either)

I tried static library, I h ave FPDFSDK_EXPORTS in pdfium project and every 
dependent project (pdfium_test and fpdf*, fx*, etc projects).
But still can't compile win32 pdfium_test binary (using only pdfium.lib).
I tried x64 static library, pdfium_test + pdfium.lib creates pdfium_test.exe 
which is working.

There is something wrong with Win32 version, but I do not know what and why, I 
do not understand gyp very well, neither the whole code of pdfium

Finally, I fixed this with the following patch:
Win32 configuration requires __stdcall, when it is included in project (not 
exported), but this is not required in x64 configuration
