Just a caveat on something that might not be explicit from the documentation nor the samples: if the dynamic call is in a loop, you should avoid to fetch and release the called module within the loop. This is just common sense, I know; good programming practice requires that you initialize things at the beginning, use those things within the loop and then clean up at the end of the program. But in this case, it is even more important, because, depending on how the called module is structured and what it does in terms of calling other modules and particularly DLLs, all sorts of strange side-effects may occur.
