How do i dynamically acces method export in CLASS

[Killer3]

#ifdef EXPCLASS_EXPORTS #define EXPCLASS_API __declspec(dllexport) #else #define EXPCLASS_API __declspec(dllimport) #endif // This class is exported from the EXPCLASS.dll class EXPCLASS_API CEXPCLASS { public: CEXPCLASS(void); char * CEXPMethod(char * plaintext , char * key); // TODO: add your methods here. }; How do i dynamically acces method export in CLASS? CODE USED TO ACCESS METHOD EXPORT IN CLASS hDLL = LoadLibrary("EXPCLASS.dll"); if (hDLL != NULL) { lpfnDllFunc1 = (LPFNDLLFUNC1)GetProcAddress(hDLL,"CEXPMethod"); if (lpfnDllFunc1 ==NULL) { // handle the error FreeLibrary(hDLL); } else { strResult = lpfnDllFunc1("killer" ,"strikes HERE"); } } for thendral -- modified at 6:54 Thursday 20th April, 2006

Hi naveen ! can u advise what exactly i need to do ? Use this API to get the address of a function that returns an instance of the class that you wish to access dynamically. For eg: The function will be something like this... void* FUNC_EXPORT CreateInstance() { return static_cast< void*> (new SomeClass); } Use GetProcAddress to get the address of this function for thendral

instead of returning the void* u can return the pointer to the class say SomeClass* FUNC_EXPORT CreateInstance() { return static_cast< void*> (new SomeClass); } them u can access the functions of that clas using the pointer obtained.. nave

Iam not in control of the situation. Can i have a sample code that achieves it? class __declspec(dllexport) MyClass { public: static char* LSGDecrypt(const char* key,const char* hex); static char* LSGEncrypt(const char* key,const char* source); } The above class is export in a dll . So should i add new function to the dll ? Iam about access a static function So is that required to instantiate the class object. HINSTANCE hDLL; // Handle to DLL LPFNDLLFUNC1 lpfnDllFunc1; // Function pointer char* key = new char [50]; key ="KEYVAULE"; char* strPlain = new char [50]; strPlain="password"; char* strResult = new char [50]; DWORD dwrd =NULL; hDLL = LoadLibrary("Mydll.dll"); if (hDLL != NULL) { lpfnDllFunc1 = (LPFNDLLFUNC1)GetProcAddress(hDLL,"LSGEncrypt"); if (lpfnDllFunc1 ==NULL) // Fails here? so DLL is freed up? { FreeLibrary(hDLL); } else strResult = lpfnDllFunc1("killer" ,"strikes HERE"); } Thanks for thendral
