dllexport

[Cengiz]

Hi,

i've created DLL with VC++ 6.0 with the following code.

--------------------------------------------------
int __declspec(dllexport) initialize(void)
{
MessageBox(0,"TEST","TEST",0);
return 0;
}
--------------------------------------------------


In another project i call this method.
--------------------------------------------------
typedef int (*INITIALIZE) ( void );
INITIALIZE initialize;

HINSTANCE hDLL = NULL;
if( hDLL == NULL )
{
hDLL = LoadLibrary( "Test2" );
if (hDLL == NULL)
{
MessageBox(0, "Test2.dll not found!", "", 0 );
return FALSE;
}

if(!(initialize = (INITIALIZE)GetProcAddress(hDLL, "initialize")))
MessageBox(0, "ERROR", "initialize", 0 );
else initialize();

FreeLibrary( hDLL );
hDLL = NULL;
}

Posting to wrong newsgroup. This is MSVC-specific question. Try

GetProcAddress fails, initialize could not be found.

This is certainly off-topic here.

But a possible reason is that the exported function name has been
mangled. You need either a def file or an extern C declaration. Talking more
about them
here would be certainly more off topic .

You're posting to a wrong newsgroup. Find an appropriate one
whose name starts with 'microsoft.'
