Forums Developers making .dll for mirc

Hi, I'm trying to learn how to make a dll file for mirc, but i need some help.
I was trying to create the .dll using Dev-cpp and I think I need to make a .def file to export my functions because when i try to use the .dll with the /dll command on mirc it says it can't find the funciton.
Is there a way to make a .def file using Dev-cpp or exporting these functions by any other way?

I am an expert mirc scripter and I understand a good bit of C/C++ so that you know how to answer me.

Declare your functions like this:

ok thx i'll try later

If you're talking about Dev-C++ the freeware IDE, you're actually using MingW to compile, not Dev-C++.. the compiler is more important than the IDE you're on

in MingW you'd use __declspec(dllexport) to export a DLL symbol without a .def file

See http://sig9.com/node/35

yes thx it works

ok now i want to make a function to be called when the DLL is unloaded



You can also define an UnloadDll() routine in your DLL which mIRC will call when unloading a DLL to allow it to clean up.

int __stdcall (*UnloadDll)(int mTimeout);




now how can i make a new funcion and make it the unload function?
