We do NOT recommend a Cygwin environment!

But whenever i try to use functions from the library i get similar error messages  -

message : "undefined reference to dnorm4".

reason the function isn't being implemented. Can anyone suggest what 
might be a solution to this? I have tried including all the relevant 
directories in my compiler path for both inlcude and library files. 
I don't know what else might eb the problem.

I assume you mean that you get the message when linking.  In that case you
have not included the import library, or not specified the path to it, or 
are using an incompatible compiler or ....

This is not an R question, and I suggest you seek local help on whatever 
compilation environment you are using.

Please learn to wrap the lines in your email messages, at about 75 chars.
