Subj : Re: converting coff libs to omf libs To : borland.public.cpp.borlandcpp From : "Ed Mulroy [TeamB]" Date : Thu Sep 18 2003 12:55 pm You already know the impediments to doing what you want, you are using a 6 year old version of the compiler and tools (impdef), trying to export classes across compilers which is documented to not work and to a compiler where the vendor deliberately altered their name mangling scheme to be incompatible with Borland. The way to export a class across compilers is to write and export some normal functions that handle the class and call those functions. And yes, every DLL, Microsoft created ones included requires a DllEntryPoint. Read Microsoft's documentation to see that fact. Some support is there for the name DllMain, which is what 16 bit apps used but that's pretty much done by having a DllMain in the libs which then causes a DllEntryPoint to be added from the library. ..
