Subj : Re: shared data in DLL To : borland.public.cpp.borlandcpp From : Ken Fong Date : Sun May 23 2004 02:45 am Gary, I'm actually thinking about shared data segment in DLL. I found how to do it in : http://bdn.borland.com/article/0,1410,20132,00.html It's an example for BCB 4.0 and NT/4 but I've tried it on BC 5.02 and Win98 and it worked as well. But I'll look into using memory mapped files as well. Thanks. Ken Gary Setter wrote: > Hi Ken, > What you are talking about is Interprocess communication.
