G-Day all We are attempting to write a custom DLL in MS C++ and would like a few questions answered about this process..
We have examples from the 2000 conference from Matt Neimeyer, and we see the example in the Making a DLL in the documentation. These leave us with some questions. Can you combine the functionality of these DLLs that will work with reports, forms, and such, and work with a straight call? If you use an example like what Matt gives us, does all the code have to be contained in the RBDLLEXE function? ???- If we write the DLL to not use the report,form side which is likely at first, then do we have to include it in the RBase.INI file. The docs lean this way, but still we are unsure. If we have to define it in the INI what is the proper syntax. I see the code for example in the docs for an example with the draw functionality like FDRAWDLL=dllname Do we need to use something like RBDLLEXEC=dllname ???? When writing a file like what MATT is done and we want to pass in a string, do our work, and then pass out a string, then do we have to use the strcopy function? -- has anyone done this with any other method Is there a limit on the size of the string passed? Is there any advice on the subject? Thanks for any info Jim Limburg __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
