problem after .dll file changed to .ddl file in VS2005
-
Hi, I am migrating my code to VS2005 from VS2003. We have certain components which are .dll files but they are named as .ddl files .When i migrate to VS2005 and i open my client exe in dependency walker than the dependant .ddl file is shown as unavailable(with a question mark) in the walker. this mainly happens coz it has been renamed from .dll to .ddl(as per requirement). My question is , why does this happen in vs2005 only and how do i solve this?. Will it create problem at runtime?. NOTE: in VS2003 the file was seen available in the dependency walker. Replies are welcome Regards, Shailesh H

why do you need them to be called ddl files?
There is sufficient light for those who desire to see, and there is sufficient darkness for those of a contrary disposition. Blaise Pascal
Well the reason for naming DDL is non technical. Its only to recognize the dll file thats the project requirement which we cannot change. thanks

Did the DLL project's linker option for output file get set to
$(OutDir)\$(ProjectName).dllinstead of what you want it to be? MarkMark Salsbery Microsoft MVP - Visual C++ :java:
