Hey
I'm trying to export a function from my dll with "__declspec(dllexport)", but there is this wierd problem..
This is the prototype of my function in the dll:
Code:
__declspec(dllexport) BYTE __stdcall ListProcesses(void* CallbackFunction)

I tried to use it with an exe, but it tells me that there isn't a function called "ListProcesses". I used a program called "DLL Export View" that shows me what functions are in a dll, and it shows me that the function called "ListProcesses@@YGEPAX@Z?". o_O

What the hell is wrong here? I want my function to have a normal name..[/code]

a .def file should fix your problem!

That is a C++ export, C++ needs to put the type, parameters (function overloading), namespace etc in the name. Unfortunately there isn't a standard so implementations will change between compilers.

Solution without .def? Import by Ordinal! (see loadlibrary msdn page on instructions to do that)
