The .dll and .a files are still not being properly created by Mingw. The only way to obtain .dll and .a files from a Mingw compilation currently in my attempts is through MSYS2. I have done so here. If you require 0.12 librairies for Windows, use this build it should work: https://github.com/l-t-m-f/SDL2_gpu-0.12.0-mingw64.zip |

This pull request makes some changes to
src/CMakeLists.txtthat ensure shared libraries build and install correctly on Windows environments.The changes I made are:
set(CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_PREFIX )- Prevent DLL files from having a prefix added to their name (i.e. libSDL_gpu.dll when it should be SDL_gpu.dll) when building with MinGW.target_compile_definitions(SDL_gpu_shared PUBLIC DLL_EXPORT)- Ensure DLL files export symbols and import libraries are generated when compiled with Visual Studio/Microsoft C++.install(TARGETS SDL_gpu_shared EXPORT SDL_gpu-targets LIBRARY DESTINATION lib)- Install DLL files in thebindirectory and *.lib/*.a files in thelibdirectory.
