Sure it does. You have to folow any link on export/import, and on the page there will be several follow-ups, one of them about C to C++, another C++ to C.

I had looked at linkig an EXE to a DLL, which does not seem to mention these issues. &nbsp;However, I see they are covered under exporting from a DLL.

I currently have a smart card API that provides all the libraries, headers and dll files (all written in C) to communicate with the smart card reader. However I need to use them in Visual C++ (That is to call the functions in the libraries written in C). <br />

How will I link those libraries to my C++ program?

Development in most programming languages is frequently done with an editor or integrated development environment (IDE). An IDE is a software application that provide comprehensive facilities to computer programmers for software development. An IDE normally consists of a source code editor, build automation tools and a debugger. XCode, Visual Studio, Adobe Dreamweaver and Eclipse are some of the more popular development tools, but an editor or IDE can be anything from simple text editors to sophisticated programs.

C++ is an intermediate-level general-purpose programming language, not to be confused with C or C#. It was developed as a set of extensions to the C programming language to improve type-safety and add support for automatic resource management, object-orientation, generic programming, and exception handling, among other features.
