Hi!<br />
check your settings for release mode<br />
for MFC shared DLL you have to define _AFXDL symbol

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I have been working on this problem for many days. The DLL will link in debug mode, but not in release mode. <br />
<br />
The error:<br />
<br />
mfcs42.lib(dllmodul.obj) : error LNK2005: _DllMain@12 already defined in PIMMPDllCtl.obj<br />
mfcs42.lib(dllmodul.obj) : error LNK2005: __pRawDllMain already defined in PIMMPDllCtl.obj<br />
<br />
I can find no extraneous linkings to other modules which have a 'main' entry point either... This DLL links to an image library (static), and to the MFC libraries (shared).<br />
<br />
Since I have just begun using the experts exchange today, I do not have many points to offer for this question, but I offer them all to you...<br />

Linking an MFC Extension DLL in release mode

Kernel and system programming is the process of creating the software necessary for a computer or device to function and operate other programs. Some operating systems (such as Microsoft Windows) are proprietary, but others, such as the various Linux distributions, are open source.
