Good morning,
I wouldl like to ask your help; I am trying to link a dll library explicltly.
I use windows, in visual studio have created a new empty project, added a source file, changed its extension to .c, and written the following code:
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <windows.h>
int main()
{
HANDLE hDLL = LoadLibrary("Library.dll");
if (hDLL == NULL)
{
printf("Failed to load the library.\n");
}
else
{
printf("Library loaded.\n");
}
}
I can build the project and execute it but always I get the output "failed to load the library". I tried to copy the dll library in every possible directory inside the visual studio project but the result is always the same.
I would like to ask you how can I get some hints (i.e.: a more useful error message) about why it is not possible to load the library.
thank you,
Alberto
