Your Winelib DLL doesn't export a function called myfunc(), but the native DLL does. (Try running: $ winedump -jexport mylib.dll to see what I mean.) Your test app LoadLibrary()'s mylib.dll, then GetProcAddress()'s myfunc() from it. (I know this because it doesn't directly call myfunc(). Run: $ winedump -jimport myapp.exe to verify this.) When it does this with your Winelib DLL, GetProcAddress() returns NULL and your program crashes--probably because it doesn't check for NULL before calling the function. (Of course, the whole point of GetProcAddress() is to be able to check if a function exists in a DLL before calling it. If you don't check for NULL, then why bother with it in the first place? But I digress.) Chip
