Small Update: (1.2)
Added a Statusbar with UnDecorateSymbolName of C++ Symbols, if selected
This is only usefull for c++ programmer

Doesn't seem to be producing macros for me. I get the code for the .pbi with the decorated functions but never see any macros. I'm using v1.2, it was the same with v1.0.

[ts-soft]

Macros only if checked and on stdcall libs by ms, kernel32.lib for example
Most libs doesn't have ansi and unicode versions with A or W at the end.

Ahhhh...OK I see. I was confused as the information in the thread seemed to indicate that macros could be produced from any converted .lib, thanks ts-soft. Its a very nice tool.

Thanks TS-Soft for this useful tools

But i have a little problem
Is it normal that when i have a procedure with string parameter, your tools create a integer parameter for the same procedure

Code: Select all

Import
 Function(a.l) As "_Function@4"
EndImport

Procedure Function(Parameter.s)
 ..
 ..
 ..
End Procedure

Kwai,

import libraries do not generally hold information regarding the types of individual parameters (C++ name mangling aside!).

The only information which can be obtained from a PB generated import library is the number of parameters taken by individual functions.

All you have to do is modify the code generated by ts-soft's tool yourself as appropriate.

Hello MASTER glad to talk to you, there is a long time
I suppose you are in vacancy without KCC
But it's finish......i'm here

I have like usually several questions

1/ Am i forced to write this As "_Function@X" after each fonction,

Code: Select all

Import "Dll.lib"
 Function(a.s) As "_Function@X"
EndImport

or just this is sufficient ?? :roll:

Code: Select all

Import "Dll.lib"
 Function(a.s)
EndImport

2/If i want return a string value from my DLL and want use import/endimport
This code is the more simple to do this ??? :roll:

Code: Select all

Import "Dll.lib"
 MyFunctionInTheDll(a.s)
EndImport

Procedure.s MyFunctionInExe(Sentence.s)
 ProcedureReturn PeekS(MyFunctionInTheDll(Sentence))
EndProcedure

Debug MyFunctionInExe("Hello Kcc")

For STDCALL dll's, either would be fine (at least with PB x86). I always use the first so that I know where I stand.

Yes providing the dll returns a global or static string. This is not a threadsafe way of doing it though. Use buffers to be absolutely safe.

Where is this buffer ?????
Have you a little example of him ??? :roll:
