When writing a DLL, all the code is done inside procedures.

[Marco2007]

Hello everyone,

is this allowed?

Code: Select all

;PureBasic.dll
ProcedureDLL test()
;do something
EndProcedure 

ProcedureDLL call()
;do someehing and call 
test()
EndProcedure 

Code: Select all

If OpenLibrary(0, "PureBasic.dll")
  CallFunction(0, "call")
  CloseLibrary(0)
EndIf

It works, but I don't know, if there could be issues, because of

Don't write program code outside procedures. The only exception is the declaration of variables or structures.

I'm not sure ...

Thanks!

Hello,

Don't write program code outside procedures. The only exception is the declaration of variables or structures.

All is said!

But if you don't plan to call the Test() procedure from outside the lib, this will be fine:

Code: Select all

;PureBasic.dll
Procedure test() ; <=== See here
;do something
EndProcedure 

ProcedureDLL call()
;do someehing and call 
test()
EndProcedure 

[EDIT] Note : Variables and structures outside procedures but constants (enumerations included) and include files too

You've read my reply before I have the time to modify it.
See {EDIT] on my previous post.

Yes, I was just unsure, if code outside call() ist allowed, when it's in another procedure.
