    Hello fellows. I removed some of the procedures in this app i'm working on and put it on a .LIB. Then I transformed it into a .DLL. No matter if it's there ore not makes no difference. The procedures are inside the app. How do i make it depend on it? Thanks in advance!

    I see the example but isn't there a way without using LoadLibrary? All those libraries that are in the LIB directory of Masm32 use the same system? Do the procedures in those LIBs get embeded in the application? I use OllyDbg and it shows the modules.

Creating DLL using MASM32

.model flat, stdcall
.code
_DllMainCRTStartup PROC instance:DWORD,reason:DWORD,unused:DWORD
mov eax, 1
ret
_DllMainCRTStartup ENDP

foo PROC export
ret
foo ENDP

END
ml.exe test_dll.asm -link -dll -out:test_foo.dll...
includelib test_foo.lib
...
May the source be with you

Hi xandaz,

QuoteDo the procedures in those LIBs get embeded in the application?

You are probably referring to the import libraries. There is also masm32.lib ( static library )

xandaz

   yes. the procedures get embeded in the app. how do i do this?

    Thanks a lot. Problem solved. It was all about the .DEF file. It's all working fine. Thanks for the help.

A def-file is usually used for undecorated or alias names.
