What's the different between these two project types? On Windows, it seemed they both produce a .dll file. Correct me if I'm wrong, does Dynamic Link Library project type is for C++ and Shared Library project type is for C? They really confused me. I don't know which one I should choose.
For example, if I want to make a Zlib DLL, which project type I should choose? Thanks for help.

My guess is "Shared Library" is for non Windows OSes and DLL is for Windows OS.

I think you're right. Both of them produce a working DLL file. As I'm on Windows, I will choose the DLL project template. Thanks.
