How to create a DLL that creates txt file...

[arznrchrd]

Real newbie in the land of C++...need some guidance...

I have a standard win32 dll project created. I need to create a function in the dll that creates a txt file with no data to some directory.

I will call this from another program. No clue where to start...thanks...

#include <fstream>

using namespace std;

void CreateFile()
{
   ofstream file( "C:/somedirectory/filename.txt" );
}

You either need to define the function as:

_declspec(dllexport) void CreateFile()....

.. or define the export entry in .DEF file to be able to access the function from outside.

When you do it, do it right.
