how to import ddl in simple c code?

You'll need to include the DLL header file, and link to the DLL lib file.

You can load a DLL explicitly too using LoadLibrary if you want.

is loadlibrary is c function or c++?

It is a Windows API function which can be used in both C and C++.

And here's some example code that goes with that :

And the example DLL that goes with it :

but why all code including windows.h :( ??? if it is simple c code?
 

can you please give me a smple code? the code you sent me they dont have example of loadlibrary?

>> the code you sent me they dont have example of loadlibrary?

Yes, it does, right here :

        http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms686944(VS.85).aspx

Note the first two lines of the code :

        // A simple program that uses LoadLibrary and
        // GetProcAddress to access myPuts from Myputs.dll.


May I ask why you gave a B grade ? That usually means that something was missing in the answer and/or that something is still unclear. If that's the case, you don't have to close the question yet, and can ask for clarification wherever needed. Us experts prefer getting the opportunity to earn an A grade ;)

Btw, as I said earlier, there is a simpler alternative, namely simply including the DLL header file, and linking to the DLL lib file. That's it ... nothing more - no LoadLibrary is needed in that case.

sorry infinity08.. i didnt get idea of A,B,C :( properly.. hope u wudnt mind:) next tym ll give A ++;)

The grade represents the quality of the answer. The help items relevant to grades are :

Just fyi ;)

It is meant as a feedback to the experts.
