How I can create shareable image file? Is it described somewhere?

Is it possible to create(from Linux) a dll file to use it in Windows enviroment? If so, how?

The Linux equivalent of a DLL is a "shared object" (.so). This is described in the compiler documentation under Building Applications > Using Libraries > Creating shared libraries. No, you cannot build a Windows DLL from Linux.

Intel software tools don't support cross building from linux to Windows, and it's not normally done with a Visual Studio compatible Windows target such as the Intel Windows compilers support. You would have to make your own gcc cross tools build, probably with some version of mingw or cygwin as a target. As Intel toolsdon't supportthis, you would have to go to other support forums, such as gcc-help mailing list.

if you run windows inside a virtual machine on Linux you can do it... but off course you had to have a full development enviroment inside the virtualized windows.

(and off course is not what you really want I think... )
