The recommended approach on Unix and Windows for extending Net-SNMP is 
AgentX. This is because AgentX uses interprocess communication and hence 
a bug in an AgentX sub-agent does not affect the snmpd master process. 
The winExtDLL module was developed to allow Net-SNMP to use existing 
extension agents that support Microsoft's SNMP extension agent API. Code 
generated by mib2c uses the Net-SNMP API and hence - when compiled as a 
shared library or DLL - can be loaded by dlmod but not by winExtDLL.

Note: the Net-SNMP dlmod module has been ported recently to Windows. 
Instructions for downloading the latest Net-SNMP git tree can be found 
here: http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Git. These 
instructions show how to clone the Net-SNMP git tree from the command 
line. If you would prefer to use a GUI, a list of git GUIs for Windows 
can be found here:
