How can I compile a fulltext plugin for MYSQL in windows enviornment?

[Peter Yau]

I found some sources code for a fulltext search plugin for MySQL :
http://mysqlftppc.sourceforge.net

I also read that other success in compiling them and run at Linux servers. However, I would like to use them in Windows version of MySQL.

I tried many search and cannot figure it out clearly. Currently I am trying :
1. Install Cygwin
2. Download Mysql 5.1.45 Linux Generic version, unzip, ./configure and make so Mysql header files would be installed (I can ./configure but still cannot successfully do the make, tried many options of ./configure).
3. ./configure, make, make install the plugin sources.
4. put the output XXX.so to Windows Mysql plugin folder and run install plugin?

I am still working hardly at point 2 but I doubt if it is the correct way.... Or are there other method to compile the sources to XXX.dll for window version?

I am green and ignorance at such things so please give some pointers for me to do the task. Thanks a lot.
