Hi,

I will try to send the code.

Surfer,

What is that you can not do? Do you need to know how to load a dl explicitly or do you need to know how to export a MFC derived class in a dll?  If you explain a bit more we can help you.

My 2 cents...

The main part of my question is:

I have a class
AClass : poblic CObject
{
...
}
I want to export my class from my DLL to the calling app.  If I use implicit linking I know what to do.  However, if I link explicit, what is the best way to import this class into my exe?  I know who to use exlictt linking with functions, but how do I do it with a classes and is it safe?

Thanks

Surfer,

To export an entire class from a dll you must prefix the class with AFX_EXT_CLASS like so...
class AFX_EXT_CLASS AClass : public CObject
{
...
}


and of course your dll must be an MFC extension dll since you are subclassing CObject

My 2 cents...

How do I use explicit linking to call this class from my exe?
