.lib files are MS Windows' equivalent to Unix's .a static libraries. What exactly
do you want to accomplish?

May be possible with the reimp tool usually packed along with the gcc suite. No guarantee though. I presume this .a file is your windows library as well, just for use with gcc on windows.

You usually want to recompile the library.
