PureBasic Forums - English

Is there anyway to call functions from an unmanaged DLL inside of purebasic? OpenLibrary doesn't seem to quite be cutting it.

A good example in C++.

I can't see any problem with Openlibrary:

While you are correct OpenLibrary works fine for most DLL's, some DLL's do not have an export table and are not able to be called or interrogated by the normal purebasic functions.

Code: Select all

PrototypeC MultiplyByTen(numberToMultiply.i)
Global MultiplyByTen.MultiplyByTen

If OpenLibrary(0, "yourdllwithmultiplybytenfunction.dll")
  MultiplyByTen = GetFunction(0, "MultiplyByTen")
  Debug MultiplyByTen(100)
EndIf

You can load and use all unmanaged dlls, if no function-export, use GetFunctionEntry()
