From: JRGlide on 8 May 2008 10:39 I have been struggling for weeks with this very problem. I need to call an MFC dll from a non-MFC application. The MFC dll was originally a working MFC appllication that I conveted to a dll. The dll works fine except that it crashes when I try to exit. David, you mentioned that you have done this successfully many times. Can you (or anyone else) show some snippets of code showing how you did this so I can compare it to mine? Maybe the calling code, the CWinApp (or at least the InitInstance) and maybe the hook function? I would appreciate it a lot. I probably have one line that is wrong some place but I'm not sure what it is. The way I created my dll is to use to App Wizard to create an MFC dll. Then I simply added my working application code to the dll skeleton code, and then added a 'C' hook function to the CWinApp that can be called from the outside to invoke the application. Thank you for any help you can provide. I have probably been to over 100 sites looking for an answer, plus various forums looking for an example and haven't found one yet. Although everything I read says it can be done and should be easy.. Jim |
