export function in a DLL

[ceodav]

Hi,

i developed my first DLL in VC++ 6 by using __declspec(dllexport) to export function.

Actually if a look inside th e dll once compiled i see the namen of the exported functions with strange characters

such as

?GetVersion@@YGJPAXJ@Z

instead of

GetVersion


How this happens?

if i want to use this dll in other project either VC++ or VB i must call it as ?GetVersion@@YGJPAXJ@Z...
is there a way to get rid of the problem?

many thanks


Davide

Hi ceodav,

Had the same problem of odd characters appearing in VC++ dll export functions.
Have just found an answer to it on this site: look at faq222-893

Hope this helps as much as it did for me.

hi,

i found somethin similar on internet and the solution is to write the name in a DEF file.


thank you
