Modifications towards making code compile on win

Modifications to make code compile on windows

It should compile with win32, but for several reasons does not yet work on my 64bit win8: I did not yet manage to get cppunit build 64bit code and also we are triggering a VC++ compiler bug in "Realse" mode. In "Debug" mode things should build as the bug is related to optimization routines.

Further changes following
complex issue, I'm not sure either but I know that instances used in the code should get auto exported. But I'm not sure if this is the case always and with every version of VC, there are reports on the web that methods got exported only after ppl adding the ```dllexport``` ```dllspec```.
