    HELP!! <please>

    Hi,

    I have a 2 c files (pdfp.c, PrinterUtils.c) and 1 .h file
    (PrinterUtils.h ) and 1 .mak file (pdfp.mak). What I need to do is
    compile these files into a dll so I can use them in my asp.net
    application.

    Does anyone have any idea how I can compile these files into a dll??

    Thanks in advance for any help at all.

    Justin

      You need to ask in the newsgroup that deals with your compiler. See
      the FAQ for a list of suggestions.

      Somebody in the newsgroup that deals with your compiler does.

          Open Visual Studio and use New Project -DLL Project. You will get an empty
          source file, maybe with a DllMain in it.

          Add those two .c files to the file list, and compile.

          You should get a .LIB file.

          Use New Project -Console Application -Hello World, and build a Hello
          World program.

          Add the .LIB file to its file list. Then #include the .h file into your
          Hello World program. Try to call one of the functions in pdfp.c.

          If you can, you are ready to use ASP.NET. Investigate (on a .NET newsgroup)
          how to link to a DLL, and then call it.

          All that is my guess, from doing similar things. This newsgroup is only
          qualified to discuss the raw C++ language itself, so your questions will get
          much better help on some .NET newsgroup.

              First off to Victor Bazarov: Thanks for that... I don't currently have
              a c compiler hence the vagueness of the question. I am a .net
              programmer. But thanks for you reply anyway :)
