I am trying to use a class which is located in the file Iphlpapi.h.
I know this file lives in iphlpapi.dll.
How do I import this class/library/dll?
I know the dll lives at c:\windows\system32
I have tried #import "c:\windows\system32\iphlpapi.dll", but this did not work.
How to I import and use this class?
O/S: Windows XP Pro
Compiler: MS VC++ 6.0
Many Thanks
Statically link iphlpapi.lib into your application (the same way you'd link most windows libs) - your compiler will have specific details on how to do this but there should be someplace to do this in 'project settings' (or properties?) if my bad memory serves me correctly. Or you can achieve the same thing with something like #pragma comment(lib,"iphlpapi").
For run-time, dynamic linking use LoadLibrary but you'll need to use GetProcAddress if you want to use any of the dll's functions of the loaded library.
Here's how to manually link:

When I try #pragma comment(lib,"iphlpapi") I get the following error
LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file "iphlpapi.lib"
Ok, so now I switched compilers to Borland CBuilder 5.0
The iphlpapi.h resides in the include folder, I can #include to file.
When I compile I get this error...
Unresolved External 'GetApatersInfo'
Although the Borland shows me the function prototype when I am coding.
I really need help on this one. I can't link the dll in MS VC++ nor can I call the function from Borland CB
Anyone please!
Did you include the lib in the projects settings?
